Great quiz! Now I'll do it again (even though I got them all the first time) to see what new cities it throws up.

"Only cities with more than 1 million inhabitants urban area". Includes Antwerp, Nuremberg and Southampton, for instance, that are quite far from 1M.

At least give your source!

After collecting the data - from citypopulation + wikipedia - I would say that "Urban Area" should be better specified to "Metro-Area", as all of the cities quoted in my previous comment reach 1M inhabitants only by considering the full Metro Area.

Hi, @giommaso. You can read about the difference between the various ways to compute city population here.

Nottingham has been put a bit too far north on this map. Shift it down a bit or call it Sheffield.

I've fixed the locations of the UK cities. They were only slightly out so I didn't notice it before :)

Good quiz. I sense a series! Just one question: is there any logic to the order of the answers to the right of the sphere or is that random as well?

They're random too! Sadly I can't control this anyway, as the randomised just picks 15 random cities in a random order

Good one, although the option for Dublin is located about 50 km southwest of where it should be.

Good idea helps with getting a better grasp on where some of these cities are. Took me 3 tries to get full score, but I am tempted to continue playing until I have the locations of these places with certainty. (But since I said to myself, this is the last quiz for now like almost an hour and many quizzes ago, it will have wait until another time)

Actually a good quiz if you try to beat it remembering the cities is fun
