    WH9: HW for 2/16

    As we discussed briefly in class today, in 1200 BCE, there were approximately 16 cities with populations of 20,000 or more (14 of them in the Indo-Mediterranean region, 2 in China). In other words, the great majority of the world's largest cities at the beginning of Big Era Four were in Indo-Mediterranea. Has this pattern continued? Today, China has 11 cities which have populations of 2 million, and 159 cities with 200,000-500,000 inhabitants. Look up answers to the follwoing questions and we will discuss your findings tomorrow in class.

    1. What are the 5 largest cities (by population) in the Indo-Mediterranean region today?
    2. What are the 10 largest cities (by population) in the world? Did any of the top 5 Indo-Mediterranean cities make the list?
