Map visualisation: finding city

Hi everyone,

 

I have a dataset with 3 cities from the Netherlands: Eindhoven, Best and Uden.

 

The map visual can find Eindhoven and Uden, but can't find Best. I have already changed the data type to City, but with no avail. I don't have actual adresses, just the cities.

 

suggestions?

sorry, can you explain what you mean by "concatenate it with country code and data category as region"?

do you mean creating "Best, NL" variable and settig data category as Region? cause then he can't find anything at all...
