I was playing a game as Turkey (obviously) and didn't get the second UHV. I looked at Rhye's maps, and I found I did have at least three cities in each area in 1700.
Mesopotamia: Ninovah, Sur, Samira (where Jerusalem was, it appears to have been destroyed).
Balkans: Bosna Saraj (Albanian/Bosnian copper), Apollonia, Athens, Istanbul.
Black Sea: Istanbul, Killia, Tushpa.
Does Istanbul not count toward the Black Sea/Balkan city count? I had all of these cities by 1670.
