And also, the Meiji Jingu Gaien Stadium in Tokyo, Japan (at the time, the Japanese Empire), which was intended to be the main stadium of the 1940 Summer Olympics before the games relocated to Helsinki, Finland after the outbreak of the Second Sino-Japanese War in 1937, which ultimately did not happen due to World War II before the stadium was demolished in 1956 (nine years after the empire's dissolution) to make way for the National Stadium, which hosted the 1964 Summer Olympics.

The car that briefly revived Bugatti and later put them into another collapse

Image
If you're wondering, I'm talking about the Bugatti EB 110, which marked the return of the French car marque in 1991, 29 years after their initial dissolution in 1962. Despite much anticipation, it didn't sell well with around 150 made before the company collapsed in 1995. Bugatti would later be acquired by Volkswagen in 1998, which resulted in the launch of the Veyron in 2005.
