Europe Circle Population Selection Challenge

The object of this quiz is to click on the circle containing the largest population within Europe. When you begin you'll be shown 2 circles with radii between 50 and 250 km on the map which do not intersect. Click on the one with the larger Europe population within it (based Europe population density info) then 'Submit' - if you are correct you'll move on. One incorrect round and the quiz is over. Every 5 rounds the number of circles on the map will increase by 1. Try to build the longest streak of correct circles. Circles displayed will always be non-intersecting.

PLEASE NOTE: ALL of Turkey is included in counting population (not just European portion), and the portion of Russia west of 61.5 degrees E (just east of Chelyabinsk). Nothing outside Europe (such as Africa or middle east other than Turkey) is included toward the population count within a circle.

France 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. When you click Start you will be shown a marker on a random populated France grid square (over 200K within France, courtesy of https://human-settlement.emergency.copernicus.eu/index.php). Also you will see an adjustable circle of radius 100 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 50K and 5 million people. Then click submit. You are scored on how close your circle's population is to the target. Circle population is tallied by totaling all output areas within that circle.

Missing a lot of cities around copenhagen.
Ballerup, Herlev, Glostrup, Gladsaxe, Søborg, Rødovre, Hvidovre, Gentofte, Hellerup, Holte, Ishøj, Albertslund, Klampenborg, Vandløse, Skovlunde, Charlottenlund, Bagsværd, and so on. Hope to have them added in some way. Maybe a newer list of city names is available.

those are municipalities, Denmark uses urban areas as the closest thing to cities, or if they are in the Copenhagen area their census counts them toward Copenhagen total.

They are not all municipalities. E.g. Søborg is a town Gladsaxe municipality. I get that a lot get bunched in with Copenhagen as a greater urban area, but it’s waay too “inclusive” in this quiz. In general, most municipalities are named after the largest city in the area, but some have different names e.g. if they used to be two municipalities that were then joined and to make it “fair” they made a 3rd name, usually a nearby lake, forest, or something similar landmark’y.

That source identifies Copenhagen as ~ what is normally referred to as the “greater Copenhagen area”, but that’s a region not a city. Somewhat subjective too. It would probably be better to go by municipalities as the umbrella parameter, and then focus on the cities after that. But I get that the source doesn’t do that and you would have to do them manually so I understand completely. It’s just that the natives might be somewhat annoyed. E.g. in Copenhagen there is an enclave (Frederiksberg) that is it’s own municipality (and city) but for all intents and purposes have merged with Copenhagen, similar to the suburban areas.

CityPopulation lists Statistics Denmark as its source. So if anyone disagrees with what’s considered a “city” in this context, it’s probably best to raise it with Statistics Denmark (a Danish government agency) and their definitions/methodology.
