For the past century, an obscure mathematical principle called Zipf's law has predicted the size of mega-cities all over the world. And nobody knows why.
Tony Hall's insight:
This is really intersting. I think it fits well with IGCSE & IB Geography. It's also a really good way to develp cross-curricula connections with your Maths department. Fascinating!

This series of photographs is quite interesting. I'm sure there would a lot of debate about the cities in the list. However, I think this could be great discussion starter about several topics - location, characteristics that lead to longevity amongst many others. I think I am going to get my Year 13 Geographers to plot them on a map to see what patterns are created. Should be interesting!
