CNN makes it official. There are twenty-one Mega Cities worldwide.

The mega city, made popular in the Judge Dredd strip in 2000AD, mostly set in the America-placed Mega City One. Defined in the real world as cities with populations of over ten million, CNN runs reports on the densest of them, from Istanbul to Shanghai, Lagos, to Tokyo, Los Angeles to Buenos Aires, with more predicted on the way, this could provide a useful resource for, well, budding 2000AD writers at least.
