    Fun fact: Russia has a state "Sakha republic" that covers more area than entirety of India. While, India has a state "Uttar Pradesh" that has more population than entirety of Russia.

    As a Canadian I’m always surprised that people think we have a larger population than we do... the majority of Canada is practically inhospitable due to extreme weather.

    What you said about Taiwan and Australia is even more impressive when you consider the fact that only half the island of Taiwan is really populated

    🇰🇿 Kazakhstan is unique in this matter too. Despite being 9th largest country in the world, it has only 64th largest population and is ranked 184th out of 195 in the population density rank. It is despite having pretty densely populated regions in the southern tip of Kazakhstan. A lot of land in the center of the country is not populated at all.
  • I always find it mind-blowing that you could add a full one billion people to the US, and it'd still be the 3rd most populous country.

    I love how Spain is used as a unit of measurement multiple times in this video.

    Just so you guys know, the population of Australia is very low, but also growing incredibly fast, since colonization 240y ago the population went from around 800,000 to now 26mil. As someone who lives in Adelaide South Australia, the population is growing insanely fast, we live in a fairly crowded world down here, we just have a big no-no area of death (96% of land) It's funny a couple years back everyone celebrated 24 million, then 25 million, and we just kinda got to 26 mil and it's going too fast now ahaha.
  • Large countries like Australia, Namibia, Saudi Arabia and Libya have surprisingly only very few people living in them. It's almost like people can't survive in the desert.

    most non-Canadians don't realize that Canada is primarily clustered around a few large dense cities, while the rest of the country is just wilderness.
  • Your videos are amazing and I personally learn a lot from your videos.
  • Here in New Zealand, almost all our population is focused in a few cities. You might cruise our state highways and think we must have a fairly big sized population because of the many small towns between the cities. But just turn off the highway and drive a few kilometres in either direction, and there's barely anyone living out there at all.

    Fun fact: China alone has more people than North America, South America, and Oceania combined
  • At 9:52, North Korea is 37M people, at 10:52 it's 25.6M people. I know uncommon things happen in North Korea but I doubt losing 11.4 M people in one minute is one of these things.
  • I would say I know a decent amount about the African continent in terms of flags, geography, etc, but knew absolutely nothing about populations. Thank you so much, this was mind blowingly interesting!

    If I took a drink every time he said "combined" I'd be dead.
  • As a Canadian when I saw the population map at first glance I thought you forgot Canada hahaha
  • @VVayVVard
    1:10 I'd like to see a similar map based on GDP. That would give a (somewhat) more accurate view of how significant each country is at a global level.
  • @NovaDeb
    Eye opening. Very interesting!
