Cairo is the correct answer

Good stuff, Ahmed.

Damascus is the oldest continuously inhabited cities in the world.
Jerusalem and Rome are arguably the most famous cities though.

>>67298767

Rome or Jerusalem

Paris doesn't even have roots from the BC , it is fairly new when it's compared to Cairo

Fuck off lads. The leaf is right. Jerusalem would make Rome seem like Los Angeles.

Jerusalem saw it all. Jerusalem saw the Pharaos capture it. Jerusalem saw the Sea Peoples who terrorised the Ancient Near East. Jerusalem saw King David, King Solomon, the birth of Judaism. Jerusalem saw the fiercest empire in history up until that point, the Assyrians. Jerusalem saw the Babylonians capture it too. Jerusalem saw the rise of one of the greatest ancient empires, the Achaemenids, and Jerusalem saw Alexander bring them down. Jerusalem saw the Greeks rule it, Jerusalem saw the Romans rule it, the Great Revolt with it. Jesus walked through the streets of Jerusalem. Jerusalem saw the Byzantines and Sassanids fight over it, and Jerusalem saw the Arabs prevail over them both. It was from Jerusalem that Muslims claim Muhammad ascended from heaven. It was Jerusalem which the Crusaders fought for, repeatedly conquered and lost. It was Jerusalem that the Turks captured, and it was Jerusalem that was so fiercely fought for between the Israelis and Arabs, with the former prevailing.

To sum it up with a video: https://youtube.com/watch?v=u6aPgA5549g


To compare it to Rome or Paris is laughable. Utterly laughable.

>two cities who have been consistently big and powerful since the ancient civilizations up until the modern era
>the capital of a emergent power since the late middle ages
it's 1000 years to young.

Whoa, slow down. LA has been around for less than 160 years. There's a 2500+ years gap between LA and Rome.

Jerusalem was founded about 3000 BC though, so its the same sort of gap
