    Population: Midgar
    Geographical size: Esthar

    That's my guesstimate. Esthar, when looking at it, had a lot of tubes and so forth but everything seemed very spread out, similar to Auckland in New Zealand which is, I think, larger geographically than London despite London having about ten times the population. Midgar, however, has slums, upper and lower cities, etc. etc. which seemed to me to be massive. So yarrr. Zanarkand might have managed to have a higher population than Midgar before it was destroyed, but it's hard to say. It still came across as less densely populated than Midgar, although like Esthar it seemed to be bigger in geographical size (although not even close to as large as Esthar itself, which is insanely spread out).

    Does Esthar count as a city though? It is, after all, a country and basically a continent as well. But I'd say it's definitely the largest.

    They see me rolling. They hating, patrolling.

    I guess Esthar is the name of a city and a continent/country kinda like Luxembourg is the name of a city and a country too?

    Anyway, I'd say that either Esthar (city) or Zanarkand is biggest.

    Esthar is a city-state.

    I voted Esthar but accidently pressed Midgar. D:

    Cocoon looks massive, though.

    Esthar always seemed the biggest to me.

    I think it's Midgar but Esthar is just as likely.

    Lindblum is comparable to Midgar.

    Are we counting Dream Zanarkand and the ruins of Zanarkand together? They are two different places that coexist temporally, even though the game does a bad job of clarifying that.

    Reminds me of an exchange in Star Trek TMP:

    "It could hold a crew of tens of thousands."

    "Or a crew of a thousand ten miles tall."
