Type 'easy' or 'hard' to begin the quiz. Easy is a 15-degree grid, hard is a 10-degree grid. Then, try to name the largest 50K+ cities in each square IN ORDER. To name a city, you must first click on the grid square to make it have a GREEN border. Then, type in the city answer for that square followed by a '.' (a period).
The squares will start with '0/5' (or maybe fewer cities if less exist in that square). Click on a square and enter the largest city in that square not yet answered (so, the largest city if you have yet to answer a city in that square). You will then have '1/5' and need to click on that square to name the 2nd largest city, and so on until you complete all the cities up to 5 (or less if less exist). If you name an incorrect city in a square it becomes 'locked' and turns red and you can no longer accumulate cities in that square.
You receive 1 point for the largest city in a square, 2 for the 2nd largest, and so on.
At the end of the quiz the largest remaining city you haven't named will be shown in each square.
Why is Seoul(almost 10M) only 539km? Cities over 10M(Tianjin or Shanghai) will be at least 800km away.
oops – i had miles instead of km – fixed now.
Where is Johannesburg? Or what is it called?
it’s actually Soweto. the city proper population is a little higher than Johannesburg
I really like that you can see some that you missed at the end!! Wish the city coverage quiz had that too.
I’m sorry, I’m slowly getting used to the quirks of this website. But Nasinu over Suva? Really?
Nasinu is now actually a larger municipality than Suva. Suva’s metro area may be larger, but my city quizzes use city populations.
