This dataset for some reason doesn't include Sousse and I'm not sure why. It should almost definitely be on here but there are 0 sources available for African urban area populations so there's not really a way to cross reference aside from the citypopulation agglomeration page which as you can tell uses a completely different metric with wildly different populations from the ones shown here.

I think that Fes is bigger than Agadir - and possibly Tanger and Marrakesh are too.

Nice quiz, if possible I'd add more "type-ins". For example I didn't get all the cities because I knew about Al Ubayyid, Al Ismailiyah, Al fayum, Az Zaqaziq, Al mahallah Al kubra and finally Wad Madani.

Still great quiz!!

I also say to allow al-Qadarif as an answer for el-Gadarif
