Nice concept, but could you make the circles a little smaller - very difficult to see where the cities are, especially in Gauteng.

Also, possibly consider using a different source. The entire East Rand (Ekurhuleni) seems to have been merged into Johanneburg, when they are very much separate cities and are run by a completely different municipality. Evaton, which is run by Joburg Municipality, is shown as being separate from Joburg though. I understand that you qualified the quiz as being linked to the source, I just don't think that the source is particularly good. Nice concept though!

I realise it isnt the best source, i could completely redo this quiz if i ever get back into mapmaking.
