Upon clicking Start you will be shown 15 satellite images of European cities. Name the city shown. Occasionally the boundaries of another city may fall within the image but you are naming the city the image is focused on (the center area of the image). You can mouseover the image to zoom in. Cities selected from over 250 possible.
Cities are generally among the largest in their country except for a few capitals or other noteworthy smaller cities.
Name the UK Travel To Work Areas (TTWAs). A travel to work area (TTWA) is a statistical tool used by UK Government agencies and local authorities, especially by the Department for Work and Pensions and Jobcentres, to indicate an area where the population would generally commute to a larger town, city or conurbation for the purposes of employment. They are generally named after cities/towns/localities. Answers named after multiple places will have any of them accepted.
The object of this quiz is to adjust each circle's diameter so it splits the circle's European population as evenly as possible. When you click Start you will be shown a marker on a random world location. Also you will see an circle between 100 and 1000 km radius. Adjust the diameter by rotating it using the endpoints, trying to split the halves into equal populations. Then click submit. You are scored on how close you have split the circle into 50% population in each half.
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.
