Paris has many nicknames, but its most famous is "La Ville-Lumiθre" (literally, "The Light City"; although most often translated as "The City of Lights" or as "The City of Light"),[16] a name it owes both to its fame as a centre of education and ideas and its early adoption of street lighting.

Thank you, kitkatz.

Who lived at 27 rue de Fleurus, Paris and guided "up and coming" writers, like Ernest Hemingway, towards finding their unique way of writing?

Sebastian's teddy in Brideshead Revisited is named Aloysius. This is one of my favorite books, I didn't need to ask His Royal Majesty, King Leon.

Ok, try this:

What rock star from India (born in Bangledesh) partnered with a Spanish Operatic Diva for a concert/album named for the town where the diva was born?

Don't try to make it hard.  It is very simple.

King Leon says: It led to a unified Spain. Ferdinand was the King of Aragon, and Isabel was the Queen of Castille. After their marriage, there was only the province of Granada left in Muslim hands. So they warred down Granada and became monarchs of a unified Spain.
