Africa Circle Radius Population Challenge

The object of this quiz is to adjust each circle's radius so it contains the target population shown at the right but ONLY within Africa. When you click Start you will be shown a marker on a random populated Africa grid square (courtesy of https://human-settlement.emergency.copernicus.eu/index.php). Also you will see an adjustable circle of radius 500 km to start. Adjust the circle's radius by dragging it until it contains the target number of people shown - this target will be between 10 and 250 million people. Then click submit. You are scored on how close your circle's population is to the target.

Type 'easy' or 'hard' to begin the quiz. Easy is a 10-degree grid, hard is a 5-degree grid. Then, name any 50K+ African city in each grid square which fits the category label for each square.

LETTER: means the city starts with that letter.
NUMBER RANGE: (such as 2-5, 10+) means the city contains that many letters (excluding spaces and special characters).
POPULATION RANGE: (such as 250-500K) means the city has that range for its population.
2+ WORDS means the city name has 2 or more words (words denoted by a space or hyphen).

also please get rid of the timer, it isn’t because it takes me a really long time to find the city, but it isn’t uncommon for it to take 30 seconds just to load a specific country

They aren’t in the top 100…reason being is I’m not using municipality populations for SA but rather “places” according to citypopulation.de, otherwise I would be double counting SA populations
