About this puzzle
Distance from a single point rearranges the map in ways that political geography does not prepare you for. Straight-line miles ignore borders, seas and flight paths, so a city that feels like a different world can be closer than one in the same broad region. Ranking these means thinking in radii from the Aegean rather than in countries.
