Odd that most of the cities are located near to the coast rather than being further inland...

A large percentage of the inland is impassible jungle or high mountains. Definitely not the easiest place to build a city, although some have been built there!

I typed Fernando de Noronha (which is accepted on your other maps) but apparently I needed to add the superfluous Distrito Estadual on this particular map. Not very happy:(

my mistake, sorry - I had done this quiz before adding that type-is so it got missed - added now, thanks for pointing it out!

Little mistake, it's MAYOR Pablo Lagerenza and not Capitán. I'm not sure but I think Capitán Pablo Lagerenza is the name of the district and not the city included, but the Chaco is so remote that the odds are good that nobody cares ;)

fixed, thanks! I only added it as a type-in in order not to reset stats, but I have updated the name in my data, thanks!

How did you choose the cities? There are some missing, like Campinas and Sao José dos Campos (in Sao Paulo state, Brazil), they are bigger than like Sao José do Rio Preto and Ribeirao Preto.

Campinas is less than 100km away from São Paulo, so even if it's kinda big, it cannot be included in the quiz, like say, Valparaíso, Avellaneda, Nova Iguaçu or Santos, because something much bigger is around.

You should consider accepting Santa Fe instead of the more lengthy Santa Fe de la Vera Cruz which nobody really uses.

Campinas is 87 km away from Sao Paulo, Potosi is 79 km away from Sucre (at least according to the data I found!) - thanks for your comment

Make BH a type in for Belo Horizonte.

And remove the type-in “Belo”. As resident of Belo Horizonte, I always say “I live in BH”, and forgot the real name. Nice quiz though.

Agree, nobody calls it "Belo", but "BH" is very common.
