Updated for 2019. A few countries swapped places, but nobody dropped off. Most cities increased at least a little in population, but several went down.

Well, yes. I suppose I was thinking about it in terms of countries because each city on the quiz is the largest city in its country.

Updated for latest numbers again. Just some minor shuffling. The closest cities to not make the list are Toronto (7.45M), Santiago (7.25M), and Baghdad (7M). Barring unexpected developments, it seems unlikely that any of them will be jumping onto the list in the immediate future.
