List of countries by population

Map of countries by population for the year 2007

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopediaSee also: List of countries by past and future population, List of countries by population in

2005, and List of countries by population in 1907

This is a list of countries ordered according to

population. The list includes sovereign statesand inhabited dependent territories.

Areas that form integral parts of sovereign states,such as the countries of the United Kingdom, arecounted as part of the sovereign statesconcerned. Not included are other entities, suchas the European Union,[1] that are not sovereign

states, and dependent territories that do not have permanent populations, such as various countries' claims to Antarctica.[2] The estimated total population of the world is 6,777,700,000.[3]

Figures are based on the most recent estimate or projection by the national census authority whereavailable and generally rounded off. Other figures are based on the 2009 July 1 estimate by theUnited Nations Department of Economic and Social Affairs – Population Division.[4] Because thesefigures are not collected at the same time in every country, or at the same level of accuracy, theresulting rankings may be misleading.

Sovereign states are listed in bold text and dependent territories in italic. States listed that do nothave general recognition are in bold and italic.

For a graphical version of this list, see List of countries by population (graphical). See also the list of regional organizations by population.

Also see list of countries and dependencies by population density.
