Europe Closest 100K+ City Random Location Challenge

The object of this quiz is to name to closest Europe 100K+ city to each purple marker that appears. When you begin the quiz you will be placed in a random location in Europe (max longitude 50 East, max latitude 60 North - might be over a body of water, but won't be over an ocean) which will be denoted by a purple marker. Name the closest 100K+ Europe city to this marker by typing in the city name followed by a '.' (period). You will then be given a score up to 100 (100 being the closest 100K+ city) based on how far away your city is in relation to how far away the closest one is. You get 25 cities for a maximum of 2500 points. If you name a city that has the same name as another possible answer, don't worry - the closest city of that name will be chosen.

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.

NOTE - This quiz does NOT include any people in other countries, ONLY France.
