Thanks! an update (I think) will come soon because citypop uses population figures from 1991 for Nigeria!

By the way, how do you cut out the map from the dot placer to show only West Africa and surrounding nations? No matter what I do, I can't seem to find out how to do this!

I just download the Africa map and then edit it with inkscape! Resize countries, change colours. Etc. If you are still confused just ask!

Yes, Abuja is included on your 200 biggest cities quiz but not here. Also, Ilorin is in Kwara State in Western Nigeria, as has been pointed out already.

Love these quizzes though
