Homotopy groups of smooth part of moduli space
Let $M_g$ be the moduli space of Riemann surfaces, as described for example in the book of Harris and Morrison - Moduli of curves. As a topological space, or better as orbifold, it has smooth points ...

Is there a Riemann existence theorem for orbifolds?
For smooth algebraic varieties $X$ over $\mathbb{C}$, the Riemann existence theorem establishes an equivalence of categories between the category of finite etale covers of $X$ and finite unramified ...
