Perhaps Maths students will soon be studying the "Bridges of the Euro" problem, instead of the "Bridges of Königsberg" problem. That will solve two issues:
* the name Königsberg has not been used by most of the world for many decades. The city itself goes by the name Kaliningrad, although younger people often use the nickname "König" for the city.
* the bridge count in now-Kaliningrad is not the same as in the famous puzzle.
(Yes, yes, I'm trying to show off that I went to Kaliningrad and checked out as many of the bridges as still existed.)
