I noticed in the demo that some cities are misspelled. Please look at the screenshot below.

Wrong: "Hanover"
Correct: "Hannover".

Not a heavy bug, just for issue documentation.

"Hanover" is perfectly fine.

https://maps.google.com/maps?q=Hanover&hl=en&sll=37.0625,-95.677068&sspn=39.184175,56.513672&t=h&hnear=Hanover,+Lower+Saxony,+Germany&z=11

This is also not a problem with Piwik, since City data is directly coming from the GeoIP City database and is not translated by Piwik (it would be hard to maintain a list of all cities including their translations for all languages).

I agree. Providing translations for cities and regions isn't really maintainable.
