What happened to Paris' over 12 million people urban area?

Why has the source reduced it to 2 million?

The source still has it at 11.3 million (under agglomeration, which are the numbers listed in this quiz).

Oh, I had a hard time navigating the site, probably was under the wrong impression.

Seems like kind of a stretch to say that Addis Ababa is in the Horn of Africa. I guess ii is by a political technicality - yes, Ethiopia IS one of the countries making up the HOA, but geographically, even if you draw a line from the northernmost point of Eritrea to the southernmost point in Somalia, the area demarcated doesn't include Addis Ababa.

"The Horn of Africa denotes the region containing the countries of Djibouti, Eritrea, Ethiopia, and Somalia." says Wikipedia.

Similar to East Asia containing all of China, even though it stretches to Central Asia.

Vladivostok is in a European country, but not in Europe. Same way that Honolulu is in a North American country, but not in North America

Quizmaster, I'm sorry to press correction or suggestion. But I was curious, how did you download a photo to the quiz while I tried hundreds of hours to do just that. By -

You can't do it, he puts it there once the quiz is featured.

Great quiz. Needs way more time though. Some of those clues need a fair bit of thinking.

Byzantium was founded by the Greeks circa 657BC. It was even the capital of the Roman Empire before Constantine took it over.

I initially rolled my eyes and thought "what kind of an arbitrary question is it to ask which countries the USA has diplomatic relations with?" Then I saw the answer and I thought – d'oh!

Although I don't think any of the answers would change this quiz should be updated since the numbers of these cities are much higher now.
