    The Tokyo part is all over the place.
    The population of 37 mil is for the Greater Tokyo Metropolitan area which covers 13,500 sq km which isn’t all shown on the map.
    It’s a bit confusing at first because administratively Tokyo Metropolis (2,194 sq km/pop 13 mil) is treated as prefecture with a governor and subdivided into about 50 wards, cities, and towns with mayors. But at the same time, Tokyo is the capital city of Japan.
    The core of Tokyo Metropolis is the eastern part consisting of the 23 wards which have almost 10 million people total and are treated as individual cities. That’s the part most people think of as Tokyo.
    Should have kept it consistent using either the city proper or it’s entire metro area.

    As small as Vatican City is, they still have a railway! The railway opened in 1934 and is only 300 meters (980 ft) long, making it the world's shortest national railway. It has access to Italy's network via a viaduct to San Pietro station which has been guaranteed since the Lateran Treaty was signed. Since 2015, the public can take a train from the Vatican to Castel Gandolfo (home of a palace that's the papal summer residence) every Saturday morning during the Summer (but was briefly paused during the pandemic).

    It's interesting to see cities by their land area as supposed to their population. The largest American city by land area is Sitka, Alaska on Baranof Island with a total land area of 12,471 square kilometres (around the same size as Northern Ireland). Most of the land is covered in mountains and the part where people actually live is more like a town than a city, but someone decided "hey, this small town and these mountains? Yeah, it's a city now".
    It's even crazier in China, Jiuquan is a "prefecture-level" city, and even though the urban area is quite small by Chinese standards, the whole area is larger than Greece. It just shows you how arbitrary city boundaries are.

    The NY Tri-State, coming into view and not mentioned by Jack: 👁👄👁
    The reason many US places are at the top is because the creator counted the whole metropolitan area rather than just the city, or they combined cities (like Dallas-Fort Worth or Boston-Providence). That's why the NY Tri-State is number one, because it's more than just NYC. If we count just the city and not a whole urban area like Tokyo-Yokohama, the world's largest city by area is Chongqing in China at 82,403 squared km (the size of Austria). In the top ten of cities by area, all except Khartoum (ranked third) are in China.

    For those who said that New York hadn’t been mentioned, I feel you, because my city Macao didn't even appear in the video.
    Macao is 33.3 km² currently but we are expanding a bit, would be the third smallest city in the world if we are included. We also have 700 thousand citizens, making it the most cramped city in the world
    Edit: I was thinking maybe the original vid just includes international cities? Cause it doesn't seem like the whole world is in there

Most of those peoples addresses don’t actually say Atlanta or New York City. Jacksonville is the biggest one that is labeled under Jacksonville everywhere. I go to school in Jacksonville and when I’m driving there from home after I see the welcome to Jacksonville sign it still takes me another 45 minutes to get to campus. And even then I could probably drive for another 15 minutes and still be in Jacksonville. Maybe I’m just salty but I feel like jax deserved a spot

    That video is a bit strange. Once it got to America it started measuring cities by their metropolitan areas (including Atlanta, which was not indicated), not their areas within city limits. NYC's area is actually 780 sq. kilometers, not 12,000, and Chicago's is 607, not 7,000. Boston is 80 kilometers from Providence yet they are included together here because the entire area is considered to be one "consolidated statistical area". The actual largest city in the U.S. by area is Jacksonville, Florida, at ~2,400 sq. kilometers, and that's because it was consolidated with its entire county in 1968.
