Resident population of every country as of mid-year — series from 1960 onward.
The ranking uses the latest available value for each country. For all of them that is 2025.
Top-20 · people
The scale does not start at zero — the values lie in a narrow range, and starting from zero the bars would be indistinguishable. The axis ticks are labeled.

Total population counts all residents of a country regardless of legal status or citizenship, as of mid-year. The series follows the World Population Prospects revisions of the UN: national censuses and population registers are harmonized to a single de facto definition of population, so the figures may diverge from the official data of countries that count resident population instead.
Important: Values for the years after the latest census are estimates; for countries with heavy migration the gap with national statistics can reach several percent.
Annual population growth in percent — natural increase together with migration.
Demography 1961–2023 Population densityHow many people there are per square kilometer of a country's territory.
Demography 1960–2025 Urban population shareWhat part of a country's residents lives in cities — the level of urbanization.
Demography 1960–2024 Life expectancy at birthLife expectancy at birth — how many years a newborn will live on average.
