Name the 10 largest cities in the European Union by population within city limits which have more than 300,000 inhabitants.

(We're exclusively talking about the areas within city administrative boundaries as opposed to urban areas or metropolitan areas, which are generally larger in terms of population than the main city.)
 
I'm only certain about the order in the top 3, last 3 are guesses.

London
Berlin
Paris
Madrid
Rome
Vienna
Hamburg
Budapest
Barcelona
Warsaw

Nine correct! According to some list (later I'll give the source) Barcelona is at the 11th position.
Later I'll react to what you said about the order.

Which is the last city?

One city per post, please.
 
I know the top 3 for certain in the criteria you mentioned. However when talking about the agglomerations, London and Paris are top, exceeding 10 million... Berlin isn't even the top agglomeration in Germany with only 4 million (that would be the Ruhr Area).

Anyway, I'd replace Barcelona with Prague then.
 
Prague is nr. 15.

London, Berlin, Madrid is the top three in that order.

I'll give you the top 5:
              official population + date of estimation
1. London  7,556,900  30 June 2007
2. Berlin  3,429,900  30 September 2008
3. Madrid  3,213,271  1 January 2008
4. Rome  2,726,539  31 January 2009
5. Paris  2,203,817  1 January 2007

Later more sources. Also we must note that "as some cities have very narrow city limits and others very wide, the list may not give an accurate picture of the situation. The figures in the list should be treated with caution."
 
No, Birmingham is on place 18.

The remaining city is in a country which hasn't been represented yet by any of the guesses.
 
A country that has not been represented suggest Romania...and Bucharest?

All other EU countries would not really have such largely populated cities.
 
I have to admit, I did not think about Dublin. Interesting that a country with a population of around 4.5m - 5m, 1.6m of them live in the capital.
 
For the Maiden lyric experts (don't look it up!):

This question deals with the Iron Maiden studio album discography apart from the albums with Paul Di'Anno:

Which is the only album on which all the songs are written in the first person singular-perspective?
 
Isn't TAatG 2nd person?

I can think of a song off of every album that isn't first person at the minute:

NotB - CotD
PoM - Sun and Steel
PS - Rime
SiT - Wasted Years/SiaSL/ATG
SSOASS - CIPWM
NPFTD - Tailgunner
FotD - Weekend Warrior
TXF - The Aftermath
VXI - TAatG
BNW - The Nomad/Mercenary
DoD - Paschendale
AMoLaD - TCDR

Confused!

Edit:! I'm just a soldier

The Aftermath is first - thus The X Factor is the answer!
 
Hmm, I guess the many choruses suggest it's not. I just remember there being a lot of "you's" and stuff early on.

Meh, I remembered that Man on the Edge isn't first person, so TXF is out. I guess it has to be VXI then.
