Cordoba is a well-known city located in Spain, famous for its historical significance and cultural heritage, especially during the period of Al-Andalus.

The Godray Pass is a high mountain pass located on the border between Afghanistan and Pakistan, specifically in the Hindu Kush mountain range. It serves as a foot-only route connecting Afghanistan's Badakhshan region with Pakistan's Khyber Pakhtunkhwa province. It is not near the border of Iran or the Arabian Sea.

The Nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty (NPT) is a multilateral treaty because it involves multiple countries agreeing to prevent the spread of nuclear weapons. It is not limited to two or three parties, making 'Multilateral' the correct description.

Among the options given, the Johor Strait is indeed the narrowest. However, the claim that it is the narrowest strait in the world is not accurate. The Bosporus Strait in Turkey is narrower at its narrowest point (about 750 meters) and is often cited as the world's narrowest strait used for international navigation. The Strait of Malacca and Cook Strait are much wider, and the 'Strait of Tartar' appears to be a misspelling or incorrect name. Therefore, while Johor Strait is narrow, it is not the narrowest in the world overall.
