	Please note that the populations are by city, not metro area

	In Palau, Koror is FAR larger than Melekeok, which is basically a village.

	Fixed, thanks.

	Great quiz.

	The largest city in the Philippines is Quezon City, not Manila.

	A_is_for_Addict:	Nov 13th, 2009 at 18:06 GMT	4 points
	According to your source Caracas has a population of 2 097 400 whereas Maracaibo has 1 891 800, making Caracas the most populous city in Venezuela. As Chase said, Quezon City is larger than Manila - 2 679 450 to 1 660 714.

	This is probably one of the hardest things i have ever done, to anyone who got them all right, i salute you.

	Roman:	Nov 13th, 2009 at 21:17 GMT	4 points
	Ok, Burma should be accepted for Myanmar. I prefer to call that country Burma rather then Myanmar. and Caracas is the largest city in Venezuela and Johannesburg is the largest city in South Africa. However, Maracaibo and Cape Town would be great for second largest cities of each country quiz..

Comment below threshold: show it

	Excellent quiz

	Very nice quiz. Knowing capitals helps a lot!

	wartank777:	Nov 14th, 2009 at 01:58 GMT	1 point
	Sporcle policy to is to accept the true name of the country... burma.

	Poolboy:	Nov 14th, 2009 at 04:34 GMT	1 point
	Yea like Chase says, Quezon City is the largest city in the Philippines, not Manila.

	A_is_for_Addict:	Nov 14th, 2009 at 15:14 GMT	2 points
	Normally I'd agree that Johannesburg is larger than Cape Town, but according to the source quoted above, Cape Town has a population of 2 415 408 whereas Johannesburg has only 1 480 530. That's the kind of thing that happens when the metro area is ignored. The other thing is cities like Manila and Khartoum getting dwarfed by other cities in their metro area. Also, the largest city in Trinidad and Tobago is Chaguanas according to your source.

	I have to thank the Fairly Oddparents for giving me Botswana.

	GastonLagaffe:	Nov 15th, 2009 at 03:35 GMT	2 points
	Great quiz! A lot of fun to do after you've been working on the world capitals and are looking for a challenge.

	davo499:	Nov 15th, 2009 at 06:25 GMT	1 point
	i agree city metro areas would probably make for a better quiz than city proper numbers.

	smekeldorfed:	Nov 15th, 2009 at 18:52 GMT	1 point
	In addition to what has already been said about the Philippines, South Africa, and Venezuela; San Fernando is the largest city of Trinidad and Tobago and Kuwait City is the largest city in Kuwait.

	FANTASTIC QUIZ

	Mcourtney:	Nov 19th, 2009 at 00:13 GMT	1 point
	good quiz, just have to reiterate that Quezon City is, in fact, the largest city in the Philippines.

	juusosieni:	Feb 14th, 2010 at 10:45 GMT	1 point
	Though there are a few mistakes I still nominate this quiz. Thanks for the challenge, 188/195.

	mmuller86:	Jun 2nd, 2011 at 22:10 GMT	1 point
	as-Salimiyah is a district of Kuwait City, so please correct this!
