Bosnia is wrong. Republika Srpska is not a city. Banja Luka is the city you needed there ( I'm from Bosnia). I also think Montenegro is wrong

I agree, Republika Srpska is an entity, an area, with Bosnia.

Agreed. The correct one for Montenegro is Nikšić and for Belarus Gomel.

Apologies for that. I somehow looked at the region it was in instead of the city itself. I don't know how I managed to do that. Fixed.

Belarus, Bosnia, France, Germany, Montenegro... all wrong. Fix your damn quiz

France and Germany are correct. There are various ways of counting, of course, and Marseilles is pretty close in size to Lyons, but I don't know of any way of counting that makes Munich (presumably?) larger than Hamburg.

Hamburg as Germany's second biggest city is correct, it is quite a bit bigger than Munich, which comes in third place.

Ok, I've checked the data and it says that Marseille is larger than Lyon counting city proper, but smaller in it's urban and metro areas.

And Munich's metro area is larger than Hamburg's, but counting city proper and urban area, Hamburg is larger.

So you can name either I guess, so long as you are consistent in your methodology, though I have always heard that Marseille and Munich are bigger.

For France it's Marseille. Prizren is not a town in Montengro, but in Kosovo. Please change!

How is Prizren the second biggest city for both Kosovo and Montenegro?

It is pretty far away from the border to Montenegro and there is no major city of that name there.

Good idea for a quiz, but I think that linking to the source and specifying city proper or metro area would be helpful.

Luxembourg is missing and it is not a single city country. Its second largest city is Esch-sur-Alzette.

And I agree with the other comments that Bosnia is totally wrong and the given answer is not even a city.
