PLAY ANGRY BRIDESSuppose we start our Geo Quiz today by destroying the greedy pigs' fortresses! Sound familiar? That's the gist of the popular app called Angry Birds. Now there's a twist on that app called Angry BRIDES. This one's designed to raise awareness about the problem of dowry in India. Dowry was outlawed in India decades ago -- but families of some grooms still demand the payments illicitly. We'll hear in a minute how the new app is supposed to help. First, name the city where the app creators at India's largest dating website, shaadi.com, are based. It's the capital of the western Indian state of Maharashtra. And it has plenty of brides and grooms. With 20 million residents, this ranks as one of the most populated cities on the planet.
