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.

btw can you also create largest cities per French region quiz? I just want to name cities in Ile-de-France but it’s split into several departments so there’s no convenient way to do it

I think the “Top Cities:” feature is broken on this quiz. I only named 6 cities, and it says I’ve listed the top 1,480 cities. This happens in every department. I am running the latest version of Firefox.

tried Seine Saint Denis now and in the 50 hardest table there was
Saint Denis – villetaneuse%
Montreuil – dugny%

and in the missed table all of the other cities (including the previous 2 with the correct city before the %)

might be an issue because I’m the first one to take the quiz but for some reason all cities were showing up in the missed list (including the ones I got)
