this was me this morning:

Thinks 'why don't I go on Jetpunk?' Goes on Jetpunk. Finds the quiz. Looks at the Indonesian flag. 'hm....' he thinks. 'That's the flag of Monaco. But doesn't Monaco have about 35,000 people? Well, I'll try it anyway.' Tries Monaco. It doesn't work. Thinks it might be Poland. Types it out many different ways.

Poeland.

Polannd.

Polland. (Like Holland)

Eventually gives up and walks away, not realizing it's the Indonesian flag. What a fail! Typical me. You should see some of my quizzes. They have so many spelling mistakes. I have had about ten separate people in the comments saying I spelt something incorrectly. Check them out and write a patronizing comment, you have my invitation.

Well, yes, Indonesia has a lot of people but here's a trick for recognizing Indonesia's flag;

The red of Monaco's flag is less vibrant than the red on Indonesia's, and Poland is basically upside-down Monaco :)

We have dropped Worldometers. They are no longer accurate because they haven't updated their site for the 2022 edition of World Population Prospects. Worldometers also has errors on their site which haven't been fixed despite me emailing them several times.

We have developed our own replacement which you can find here.

Google "drc population" and it says 95.89 million, from 2021.

Just underneath, Worldometer announces, rather confidently, that it's "96,923,946 as of Saturday, March 18, 2023"

It's an especially difficult country to measure accurately, as you mention. Many border regions will have margins or error in the tens or even hundreds of thousands.
