      @@destructoGB I was less clear in my comment than I should have been. I would not for a moment underestimate the contribution of China to technology. I have read parts of Joseph Needham’s Science and Civilization and so am well aware of Chinese inventions and technology. My point is that China has also borrowed from the West. Let us start with bronze metallurgy. Although this is somewhat controversial, on balance I think there was a stimulus from the West. The chariot was certainly introduced from the West-it appears suddenly at Anyang whereas it had long been employed on the Western steppes. Iron is also much later in China, although the Chinese rapidly surpassed Western iron technology. Glass also, although not much used, came in from the West. Buddhism from India was a huge influence on Chinese culture. Sassanian metalwork influenced Chinese. Chinese chess is based on Indian chess and Shuanglu 双陆and polo are originally Persian games. The pipa is a Western Asian musical instrument that came across the Silk Road. Silk, paper, the wheelbarrow, the compass, gunpowder, porcelain manufacturing, etc were all important Chinese inventions that influenced the West. Interestingly, it is likely that cobalt oxide used to paint on Chinese porcelain was introduced from Western Asia where it had long been in use. And once the Industrial Revolution got going the flood of Western influences was unstoppable.

      Exactly. Enough fresh food and enough infrastructure just couldn't provide for much more than a million people before the industrial age. Cities just sank into sewage, pestilence and starvation when they tried to get larger.
      London's exponential growth in the 19th century was the prototype for all global metropolises that were to follow but soon found itself completely eclipsed by them. For the first time in human history, hundreds of thousands of tons of food and fuel could flow into a city each day at a sustained rate using canals, railways, paved roads and steam shipping. The Victorians quickly realised they also need to build enormous clean water reservoirs and sewage systems utilising thousands of miles of pipework and driven by steam pumps. Revolutions in brick-making, concrete production, and mass produced steel provided the cheap, abundant buildings that these new cities demanded.
      Also, the advent of medical science saw new hospitals, surgical techniques, hygiene measures and medicines flood the market allowing more people to live longer. On top of all that was the mechanisation of agriculture and finally the application of artificial fertilisers via nitrogen fixation. Today, 85% of the world's population are alive _only_ because of these vast implementations of chemistry such as the Haber process.
      From where we are today, it is difficult to reconcile that just 200 years ago, the urban lifestyles we so take for granted today were not only absent, they were physically impossible.

The Spanish record that it was 4 times larger than Seville and comparable to Constantinople. I don't understand why it never even appears in this video until it became the Mexican capital.*
    *2) Kano suffered famines all throughout the 1800s (at least 10 separate famine years are documented) and thusly never had a population as large as claimed in this video. In fact the highest estimate I've ever found anywhere put it at 200,000 and that was the absolute highest. Making it the second largest city in the world after London with a population more than 15 X the highest estimate is very suspect here.*
    *3) Luanda never even reached 1 million in population until the 1980s so to see it here larger than Chicago (once the world's fastest growing city) in the early 1900s makes no sense whatsoever.*

    This video isn't even accurate. One that sticks out like a sore thumb in the early 1900s is Luanda, Angola. It's population is listed as being larger than the population of the entire colony was! It's listed at 5.2 million in 1940, when in reality it had 60,000 people. Kano, Nigeria is also inexplicably shown as one of the largest cities throughout most of the 20th century.
    With mistakes that glaring it's hard to take this video seriously.

      I think that in that particular case they assigned country population to capital city population by mistake, which for an agrarian country makes a huge difference. Also Tenochtitlan, according to multiple sources, had some 400,000 inhabitants around 1500 (before the smallpox pandemic and resulting population collapse of the 16th century) making it the third/fourth largest city in the world at the time, certainly larger than Constantinople, and this is nowhere to be found here.

    Fascinating chart, and very interesting to see it put together like this!
    I would be interested to know how you decide on the city sizes though. I feel like some of these cities include the metro-areas/continuous urban area (as they should) and others include only the administrative city-proper, which doesn´t give a true reflection of the size.
    e.g. Los Angeles metro area is around 20,000,000 plus and so is bigger then New York, but according to this chart it is several positions down. Likewise, the Jakarta Metro Area is the second biggest on earth (I believe around 28,000,000), after Tokyo, but doesn´t even make it onto this chart.
    Likewise I was looking out for Tenochtitlan around the time of the Spanish conquest, as it was supposed to be one of the biggest cities in the world, but it also doesn´t make it onto this chart.

Si incluso en la actualidad hay ciudades que han pasado décadas de sequía, sobreviven gracias a que pueden traer el sustento de otro lugar gracias a los transportes modernos. En el pasado era imposible, la única opción era dejar todo atrás y buscar un nuevo lugar con buen clima.

    Interesting but context is very important here. I have been studying Ekistics for years and most people don't appreciate the difference between a 'city proper' and a 'metropolitan area' and even this varies from country to country. The list here (as stated) seems to be taking into account the whole Metro area. 36 million for example is the population of Tokyo Bay which also includes Yokohama, Kawasaki and Chiba alongside the 23 Special Wards of Tokyo 'proper' and they are all cities in their own right.
    Not surprised to see the figures at the end though. African cities like Kinshasa are exploding in population.
    Here in the UK, the 'City of London' is actually extremely small - about 8,000 people in the historic Square Mile. What is generally seen as 'London' is the 32 boroughs of the Greater London Metropolitan County which is about 9.2 million

      probably a looooot of guesswork involved, especially when you go back to the BC times and the video is showing #s down to the 1 on all those cities lol, zero chance it is possible to be even remotely accurate when it comes to that. Still a cool video, and I imagine most of the #s are at least in the ballpark

      Everything pre bronze Age collapse (1156 BC?) will be speculation at best, and pure fantasy at worst. We know next to nothing about the cities in the Sumer city states (kingdoms) of present day Iraq, that is the 2900-2100 BC period. We have quite a bit more info of the Akkadians, Assyrians, Babylonians, etc, but still its speculation. Rome and Greece were the first well documented areas because they are apart of European and the America's history.

    So much to take away from this. Alexandria almost hit a million people in the time of Caesar, then regressed, then Rome topped 1.2 million, declined, and when it fell, no city would hit the million mark for another 500 years. We think of the fall of Rome being mostly a western European issue, and while the rest of the world didn't plunge into a dark age, there were various instabilities.
    Also, whether by war, famine, scandal, or plague, once some of these great cities of ancient times fell, they often crumbled fast, not always to recover.

    Are you sure about Kano? Haven't seen anything to indicate that it was so populous that it was the world's second largest city with over three million people in the 19th century. Indeed, the 19th century was a pretty grim time for the region, with multiple famines.
    Just checked, and I'm pretty sure whoever compiled this confused Kano *State* with the *city* of Kano.
    Same goes for New York. Whoever compiled this confused New York City (which never had 18 million people) with New York *State*.
