Here’s a capital city one for the Brits and fans of this fair isle:
Edinburgh is due north of Cardiff.
This one blew my mind when I figured it out. I mean: Scotland is north of England. Edinburgh is in the east of Scotland. Wales is west of (most of) England.
You might (as I did) expect Edinburgh to be closer to being north of London, not so far west that it has the same longitude as Cardiff.
