	Wow, I knew Dubai would have a high percentage of tall buildings compared to its overall size, but I'm amazed it already has that many total.

	considering how "young" shenzhen is, what 30 years ago it was a fishing village? its amazing how high it ranks...

	Wow - if anything shows the rise in importance of Asia then its this! How many cities in China can you name??

	Do you think it might be more appropriate to put Honolulu in the Pacific?

	I thought about it but I think it would confuse more people than it would help them. We've grown up with the concept of Hawaii being part of the USA and thus North America. But i do agree that it is technically not part of the North American landmass. Then again Cyprus is Asia but most Sporcle quizzes label it Europe because of its culture.

	Great Quiz! side note that Busan should be acceptable as Pusan

	Manitopiaaa:	Dec 4th, 2010 at 23:54 GMT		1 point
	Okay, Pusan is now acceptable. Thanks!

	The fact I only know two Chinese cities really affected my performance!

	@adamvillani Okay, changed Honolulu to Pacific seeing as 11.6% correct rate seems incredibly low.

	Why is honolulu not in order?

	Cities with officials, planners, and corporate leaders, with small penises. There are no Swedish cities here - hint-hint.

	You should move Honolulu back to North America, and change Australia & Pacific to Oceania to be consistent with Sporcle geography.

	i got all the chinese cities :D I would have thought qingdao and xiamen would be more guessed than Dalian, I go to dalian quite a lot and the only foreigners who ever visit are sweaty russians! while qingdao hosted olympic rowing

	Wow this really demonstrates the economic rise of China, and more importantly how little people know about it!
