How Good Is Your Geographic? [5]

[Storm]

This is a tricky one...are we guessing small countries but infact its a bluff and it is a big country that nobody has thought of?

Clue: Population of this place is under 10,000 (as from July 2010)

Tuvalu

Tuvalu

Tuvalu's Capital is Funafuti.

Getting warmer though, and the population of my country is exactly the same a s that of Tuvalu (to within 450 at least)

Nauru then

[anfield5]

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

How bizarre.

Let me think of a good question

[steveaki13]

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.

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.
