I think Godthab should be accepted for Nuuk. And yay, my wish came true.

Pretty hard to see the difference between Belize City and Belmopan even when clicking on the map. I guess there might be a few pixels.

At the time of making this map, I did not know how to make "zoomable-circles". Perhaps I should fix this.

I couldn't tell which one it might be, but was kind of glad it was Belize City, which is the older and more populous town. It's good not to always default to capitals.

Nice quiz, but - probably nitpicking - it would have been better to include well-known Reykjavik instead of Nuuk.

But Iceland is not considered part of North America; it's in Europe. Nuuk is on Greenland.

I gives Atlanta when you type Memphis. That must be a mistake...

Aug 27, 2016
I think @Jiaozira was being generous, but looking at that dot, it's clearly Atlanta, so I removed Memphis as an acceptable type-in.

Also if you write "Springfield" instead St. Louis.

Could you accept just Santiago for Santiago de Cuba?

hm... so there is more than one city in Belize. Who knew?

Also, yeah, Santiago should probably be accepted. and maybe even Belize for Belize City. I would have actually gotten it in that case as I was randomly typing in things.

There are even more than just one: http://www.jetpunk.com/user-quizzes/149667/belize-cities-by-map

Fun fact: Belize city was actually the former capital of Belize(British Honduras as it was known back then) until a hurricane hit the coastal city in 1961. The government moved it to Belmopan after the event. More here: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Belize_City

Was reading an article about how some countries have changed their capitals to other places. Learned that, and that Brazil's former capital was Rio de Janeiro up until 1960, I think.

That is correct. Brasília was created by the Brazilian president at the time, Juscelino Kubitscheck.

No, Belize City is the largest city in the country, and is located 60 km east on the coast.

Also New York is accepted for NYC, so Belize should be accepted as an answer.

I don't know this about Belize City - do people there ever just call it Belize? You cite New York, but you can't just say "Kansas" for Kansas City, or "Oklahoma" for Oklahoma City.

Great quiz! I somehow managed to forget really easy ones like Montreal, but I knew the obscure ones like Nuuk and Whitehorse. Go figure.

Saint Paul for Minneapolis, Jefferson City for Saint Louis, San Jose for San Francisco, Springfield for Saint Louis, San Jose del Cabo for Cabo San Lucas, Lapaz for Cabo San Lucas... but you forgot to accept "^NORTHAMERICANCITY" for every single one!

for dummies: way too many type-ins accepted! This quiz is far off from testing whether people can identify North American cities if it accepts ones that are within the ballpark.

Hawaii isnt in North America. Also, Greenland shouldnt be greyed out.

Level 70
Oct 11, 2020
Hawaii can be included in North America for political reasons (continents are almost completely arbirtrary after all). I do want to fix Greenland's colour one day, but there are many other edits I can make to improve my other quizzes, so it is very low on any sort of priority list.

Dec 13, 2021
Hailfax isn't a spelling issue, it's a not knowing the answer issue because you're removing an entire syllable. You wouldn't accept Pairs for Paris, right?

Here we go again. Greenland is NOT a country (Yet, depends on how many people there will be in Greenland in the future, and the Danish people)! Greenland is a TERRITORY of Denmark.

Dec 13, 2021
I think he's ornery that Nuuk is in the category "Other Countries" because it's located in Greenland? But Denmark... Denmark is an "Other Country". Oh boy, you better believe that Denmark is an "Other Country".
