Finally acing the 200 biggest cities of the world quiz certainly helps with all the others. 15/15 .. the world one would be cool with a map, although it'd be a massive undertaking to make.

Got bailed out on Dar es Salaam. Knew it was Dar-something. Apparently that was good enough. :-)

It's an appropriately-allowed abbreviation. People there virtually always call it "Dar".

I don't think of it concise as I do this top 15 one. If I were to make anything of that it would be 30 largest, 45 largest, e.g. :)

I'm gonna be honest; I did way worse on this one compared to all of the other continents, which reminds me to touch up on my African, SE Asian, and Pakistani geography.

Yeah, we use urban areas from CityPopulation. Addis Ababa just misses the cut at 3.75 million.
