  • Years after 2023 are projections based on the UN's "medium fertility" scenario.
  • Country population includes all overseas territories and autonomous regions. For example, population for the United States includes Puerto Rico.
  • Morocco includes Western Sahara.
  • Population for Israel does NOT include Palestine.
