The national definitions of cities proper, urban areas, urban settlements, built-up areas differ a lot among the countries.

In case of some countries, oficially presented borders for cities proper are much smaller than real built-up areas and borders for urban areas much bigger.

That's why I tried to do the quiz as comparable and accurate as possible and did a lot of research with the satellite images.

- Where the official data for cities or urban settlements are acceptable and match with real built-up areas that data was used.

- Where the official data differ a lot from reality on the ground but there are available data for counting more realistic and more comparable figures, I did my own research with the satellite images.

- Where there are smaller cities, villages or settlements that are unquestionably part of the built-up area of ​​a bigger city their figures were added to it.

- Where there are more big cities of similar size that unquestionably creates one continuos built-up area, they were grouped together and you can guess the correct answer by typing name of any of them.

You can argue with me here and there but overall it should be really precise and comparable. I spent huge amount of time on this quiz to make it really as precise and comparable among so many countries as possible.

Elektrostal is in the quiz. Balashikha and Mytishchi (and also Reutov, for example) were added to Moscow as one built-up area. Check the methodology. You can argue with me here and there and the truth is that example of Moscow and its suburbs is quite difficult to decide, especially with the unsufficient official data.

Thanks for letting me know. I know about it, but still, the quizzes are different, since my data are more comparable and accurate, because I don't just use "city proper" figures.

The Batley/Dewsbury dot is on the map underneath Huddersfield, but in reality (according to google maps at least), its more to the east-north-east.

Apart from that, i got a few spelling differences between google and this quiz on 2 russian cities, not sure which one is correct. Yevpatoriya and Volzhskiy are on Maps with the i, while you have done it without. Again, not sure who got it correct.

Amazing quiz though, very challenging!

ий is inconsistently Latinized. iy is probably(?) the most common version, but there are tons of examples where only i or y is used instead.

Wikipedia, for example, says "Volzhsky (Russian: Волжский)"

It's not really something that has a clear parallel in Latin alphabet, so there isn't a single correct version.

Between the inconsistent precedents and differences amongst Cyrillic languages and dialects, don't expect to reach a satisfactory consensus on that one any time soon.

Noticed the Netherlands could use some type-in love. Hertogenbosch is usually accepted without the 's, as is Haag. You did include den Haag/den Bosch, so it isn't a huge deal, but most quizzes allow a broader range of type-ins there.

Would also allow for Ruhr. After that didn't work I started trying each city individually, which is not really what you're intending there.

Fun quiz though.

The best quiz of this sort i have found, especially for France where the cities (communes) are always way more little than their agglomeration. It is pertinent like this, even if some cities in the parisian area like Cergy-Pontoise, Argenteuil or Versailles are not really like if it was Paris and have their own urban entity and agglomeration.

and I think that if the agglomerations of Pau and Bayonne are there, it is surprising not to have places like Valence, Béziers, Perpignan or Saint-Nazaire
