Please add the Dnipr- spelling as an alternate answer. Otherwise a great quiz.

Maybe add "Dairen" as an alternate spelling to Dalian. Or maybe not. I need to get the newer spelling drilled into my head.

Why is Denver being guessed by significantly more people than Dallas or Detroit? It's smaller than they are. And Dallas is one of the ten biggest cities in the U.S.

Well, if the inclusion of Dnepropetrovsk doesn't get everyone off Kyrgyzstan's back, I don't know what will.

I thought of Dnepropetrovsk--or, rather, I thought of a city that was something like that. Glad I didn't spend too much time trying to spell it properly.

The only thing harder than thinking of Dnepropetrovsk, Ukraine, is spelling it.
