In Revelation 11:13 only a tenth of Jerusalem falls whereas here the city (Babylon) “became (Greek) into three parts” by the earthquake.
_ _ cities of the nations — other great cities in league with spiritual Babylon.
_ _ great ... came in remembrance — Greek, “Babylon the great was remembered” (Revelation 18:5). It is now that the last call to escape from Babylon is given to God’s people in her (Revelation 18:4).

(26) The seat or standing place of Antichrist.
(27) Of all who cleave to Antichrist and fight against Christ.
