@@ArnavA-un5gk It's very unlikely they have any data that granular. It would have to be estimated which seems like something they wouldn't want to do. So I'm guessing it's a error.
Ofc the issue was that I didn't spot it at all, but tbh I'm still not sure how Athens is the answer - within city limits it's not that big (Kisangani is quite a bit bigger, for example)
@@jakelyonsgeo The biggest problem with some cities is that it's very hard to determine the city limits, i live in Mersin Turkey, and there is no specified population for the city of Mersin, just the province and the districts, if you were to look for the population of the city, it would show up as 2 million while that is the entire province population. I would estimate the real population to be much less at about 1-1.2 million, this might also be the case with Athens.
@@notjustanormaldud Sweden does this too, there's really not been anything like city status since 1971. We do have statistics for urban areas deliminated by SCB though. People tend to refeer to these areas as cities if they are large enough. But this quiz doesn't seem to be consistent even when there are city limits Athens has them and is smaller than Kisangani there's also Chongqing which has 32 million people within city limits which is technically the most populous city in the world not showing up on the quiz. Then the website tend to use Old Muscat Wilayat for Muscat which has like 30k people, it's very strange.
I think because all of Karaj is in the longitude, and not all of Baku, so Karaj is counted as bigger, Karaj is still around 1.6 mil, so it’s probably because of that. Or it could just be wrong, you never know
The keyboard is indeed enjoyable. You should try "Europe 100 Km Coverage Challenge". Basically you can only name cities, that are in the 100km range of all of your previously named cities. It is quite hard to get out of the high density blue banana area, but it is quite fun
The quizzes should do metropolitan area, not city size. City size means nothing. eg Atlanta is over 6 million but the core city is only 520k. Some of the suburbs are more densely populated.
the main reason they don't is because metro pops for many cities in certain parts of the world aren't really known, just estimated. But yes it is annoying since metro pops are more reflective of real urban area size.
So close! Ah shame about Hangzhou. One of the more historic and culturally significant cities in China, not one of these random megacities that popped up in the last couple decades. It's tough that the quiz tests not just city knowledge, but also location as well as population knowledge and spelling too but you got that on lock. Still some amazing pulls getting all of South America and Africa.
if you want to remove background noise and have an nvidia gpu, they have something called `nvidia broadcast` that has 11/10 noise suppression. i'm sure there are other options that are both hardware accelerated and not
Sites like these often use city borders/limits (what we call "city proper"). Paris city proper is only about 2 or 2.1 million. Certain African cities do get really large
The population of Paris itself is 2.1m of the Paris metropolitan area it's about 10.5-11m Lagos has 15.5-21million inhabitants, Nigeria is one of the most populous countries in the world. Yes it has been cities naturally. Lagos is projected to be one of the world's biggest cities, 6th infact by 2050, and the biggest by 2100 due to their growth.
