01What the data says — and does not say

Wikidata's localized description: city in Carabobo State, Venezuela.
02This city's dataset fingerprint
The source row behind Valencia (Venezuela) is GeoNames ID 3625549. Its recorded administrative path is Municipio Valencia → Carabobo → Venezuela, and GeoNames classifies the place as a first-order administrative seat. Valencia appears on 2 separate GeoNames rows in this atlas, so the qualifier “Venezuela” and numeric ID prevent those places from being merged. The city row itself was updated 2026-04-14; that date belongs to the source record, not to every transport or visitor detail in the real destination.
Within the fixed 1,206-record atlas, Valencia (Venezuela) ranks 277 by recorded population. Inside the 7 selected Venezuela entries it ranks 3; inside the 198 entries in its broad region it ranks 38.

That combined key distinguishes the row; it is not a recommendation or evidence of a physical connection.
