Might want to throw in a definition for what is considered as 'urban area.' Surface area, people, other metrics? Tough either way. I don't know my cities...

"Teheran" should be accepted for "Tehran".

that was fun, but can you please make the rows a little skinnier so it will fit on my computer screen?

I hate City Mayors data. Guangzhou has a metro population of anywhere between 8 million and 15 million and city mayors doesn't even have it in the top 100.

Made a couple of edits. Teheran is now accepted for Tehran, the rows are narrower, and I specified in the instructions that it's world cities. As for the source, I debated over that but CityMayors seems to be as accurate as any for this kind of quiz, and it's generally accepted on Sporcle. Keep the feedback coming!

Why "metro Manila" but none of the others include "metro" in the name? I realize it's in the source that way but it's kinda weird.

You know you've entered a new era when metro London is dropped from the top 60 (at least on this list).
