What is ironic about calling Lilliputs major city in Metropolis

Answer:

Metropolis means a large city. Although the country of Lilliput is huge and surroundings are beautiful. However, there is no other name of a city - Lilliput is all I am aware of.

Metropolis means a large city. Lilliput's major city is actually really small. So, it is ironic about calling Lilliput's major city as Metropolis.

Lilliput and Blefuscu are two fictional island nations featured in Jonathan Swift's 1726 novel Gulliver's Travels. In the South Indian Ocean, the two islands are separated by an 800-yard-wide channel.

Both are inhabited by tiny people about a twelfth the size of ordinary humans. Both are empires, or emperor-ruled realms. The metropolis is named Mildendo.

Mildendo is Lilliput's capital. In some images, the islands are arranged in the shape of an egg, alluding to their egg-dominated histories and cultures.

Since, metropolitan means a big city, Lilliput's major city in Metropolis is ironic.
