Why did Qatar need eight more stadiums? That seems a bit much for a country the size of Connecticut.

The Olympic Committee appears to demand that many sites.

Is the World Cup part of the Olympics?

No. Sorry.

Okay now I’m even more confused. They built eight stadiums because of Olympics but…there isn’t an Olympics being held there. Or is it a future site for the Olympics, as in they are trying to host it? I’d assume their biggest hurdles aren’t infrastructure but maybe more civil rights based if that’s the case.

I was more confused than you when I wrote the first comment. I did think the World Cup was related to the Olympics then. Then I was reminded of reality by another Redditor. Sorry.
