Yeah, it's due to Wikipedias choice of using official capital area, rather than the wider metropolitan area. See the second note in the description! Indeed if the wider metropolitan is included (which is incredibly difficult to work out where the cutoff point is for high density countries) then BA gets upwards of 13 million, compared to Algiers 5 million.

This use of city area is common among Capital JetPunk quizzes.
