Nauru then

We have a winner!!!!

Nauru has no Capital town, it has a Capital region called the Yaren District in the Southern part of the Island, but no actual town

Without cheating and including Metropolitan areas, can you name and rank the top 10 largest Cities in South America by population? (Only counting the 10 countries of South America, not central)

I have seen a few stats giving slightly different numbers, so I can be flexible.

How bizarre.

Let me think of a good question

[anfield5]

Rio - Brazil
Sao Paula - Brazil
Lima - Peru
Buenos Aries - Argentina
Brasilia - Brazil
Caracas - Venezuela
Bogota - Colombia
Monte Video - Uruguay
Santiago - Chile
Manaus - Brazil

Great effort Anfield, firstly you have 7 of the top 10.

Brasilia is surprisingly 17th, Montevideo is way down in about 35th. Uruguay only has a tiny population generally. Manaus is 32nd.

So Rio, Sao Paulo, Lima, Buenos Aires, Caracas, Bogota, Santiago are all correct. 3 to get first up which are 7th, 9th and 10th on the list

You have the top 4 correct but wrong order slightly. Very good first effort though.

Brasilia is not in the top 10.

Belo Horizonte is though

ummm

Salvador - Brazil (as opposed to San Salvador)

I always though Brasilia and Buenos Aires had the same population (about 3 million)
