Today’s challenge will test your skills of international collaboration and case studies.
Hint 1
Use the two pictures as a single stl.la link. It leads to different places, depending on what country you are in.
Hint 2
There are 8 parts. The first part is a clue for what to do with the rest, after you put them together. Remember the "case studies" clue.
Solution
The pictures are of smoke and a signal.  stl.la/smokesignal leads to a page with the text "King of..." and another link that says "n of 8".  The stl.la link leads to one of eight different Ancient Societies pages, depending on what country you are in.  The destination of each of the "n of 8" links provides one part of the solution.
n of 8 link	Country	Anc. Soc. Page	n of 8 Link 	Solution
1 of 8 	Other 	u2XCP7AgGn 	YouTube home page 	(video id)
2 of 8 	U.S. 	2itkGjLkB6 	Lowercase Letter 'v'	v
3 of 8 	Japan 	BKb3Ba7tdU 	Q from Star Trek 	Q
4 of 8 	Germany	W6zR8AmAUQ 	lowercase-letter-h 	h
5 of 8 	Italy 	XYb2pbL9aw 	qik_logo 	qik
6 of 8 	Brazil 	Jjxpstn73A 	W Hotels 	W
7 of 8 	Spain 	eR2iXXLM8C 	n: The Lonely n Song	n
8 of 8 	U.K. 	vXDMQqhZ82 	What is a QCU? 	QCU
The first line gives us the clue that it's a YouTube video ID. Assembling the rest of the parts in the last column results in this video ID: vQhqikWnQCU  The subject of the video is Franzl Lang, who is the "King of Yodelling". The solution is stl.la/yodelling.
