Answer: Yes, I agree with cherrytea78 it would be false.
Explanation: As you know when a city can have a large population but today other countries have larger populations in other cities such as Tokyo, Japan has nearly 40 million largest in Asia, Beijing has 21 million people 7th largest city in Asia, Mexico City has nearly 22 million people largest city in America, New York has the population of 19.4 million people second largest population in America. But typically complex civilizations would have larger populations because the inventions have let them live longer just like the Industrial Revolution when people started working in factories and the population was boosted decades later. When you go to other cities you will see people crowded when they are in the city. This is why urbanization, advanced technologies, exports/imports, etc have caused the world population to boost.
