I know this doesn't really matter, but when you explain what Central Asia is you forgot Uzbekistan :)

Is it possible to add Aqtobe as Aktobe? It's a commonly accepted and used name

It would be good to cite your source and clarify, whether you mean urban area or actual city proper. I seriously doubt, there could be over 900k people in Bishkek´s city proper. On the other hand Khujand´s urban area would definitely make it into the list, since its something about 500k I think.

Also it would be nice to include more cities, perhaps all surpassing 200k people. It was quite a sad not to see the quiz such a important regional centres as Khujand, Osh, Fergana, Bukhara, Kokand or Qarshi.

Could you please accept Samarqand for Samarkand? I’ve seen it spelled both ways.
