Fill in the 25 squares with the top three (in terms of population, or less if less than 3 qualify) 10K+ European cities based on the categories in the top row and the geographical location given in the cell. For example, if you are looking at a cell with ‘Netherlands’ in its row, and ‘2+ Words’ in the column, that cell can be filled in with ‘The Hague.’ as it is one of the 3 largest 2+ Words cities in the Netherlands. When a cell is completed it fills in green.

For this quiz, Balkans includes the entire countries of Albania, Bosnia & Herzegovina, Bulgaria, Croatia, Greece, Kosovo, Montenegro, North Macedonia, Romania, Serbia, Slovenia & the European portion of Turkey. Nordic refers to Denmark, Finland, Iceland, Norway and Sweden.

Occasionally a cell may not have any qualifying answer, in which case it will be filled in bright green and be a gimme. Cells with two answers left will have a very dark green background, those with one answer left more of an evergreen shade, and finally bright green for those which have been completed. Some cells with only 1 or 2 valid answers will start with a green shade corresponding to how many answers are left.

hugequiz Premium members will see missed answers in red – they will be the largest city which qualified in each cell – only one miss will be shown per incomplete cell.
