History

The largest cities are a fascinating lens through which to look at history.

- In 1800, London was the largest city in the world with 1.1 million inhabitants.

- Today greater Tokyo tops the list with 37 million inhabitants.

- Similarly, in 1900, Europe and Northern America had 69 of the world's 100 largest cities. Today, Asia and Africa account for 73 of the world's 100 largest cities.

Loads of factors behind this, but the numbers as a whole give a good sense of the shifting tides of globalization, tech, and policy.
