Or spread them out over the host country, like the World Cup, instead of only one city.
A great way to promote the whole nation and mitigate a lot of the traffic, lack of accommodations, etc.

@phlegmatic I think you may have misunderstood what @stormr was getting at. Due to legislation passed in 1952 (Agricultural Land Act), it is extremely difficult to combine and incorporate farms.
