I was thinking they should have included at aleast one third world city in their but turns out the population density of Kolkata, India is only 1.17x of Paris, France though the absolute population is twice as big. Didn't know Paris was this packed.

Paris is the densest city outside of Asia.
America has a lot of wasted space
Agriculture lol
That’s a good thing in a lot of ways though. Room to grow room to fall back in the event of an invasion, areas to dispose of waste without harming communities etc.
Sure, If you think that nature should be replaced by urbanization. Then yeah, wasted space i guess.
Do Kowloon, the dentist area probably ever.
