[OC] How Many Urban Areas Over 1 Million People Does Each European Country Have?

Data source: https://www.citypopulation.de/en/europe/

Method: Note that some cities will have an urban area population below 1 000 000, but a metro population over. These are not counted. Note also that there are slight national variations in how “urban area/urban settlement” is defined. For some countries, citypopulation.de only provides the population within administrative borders. In these cases, other sources such as World Population Review has been used.
