Caveats and explanations
All data is based on the 2024 edition of the UN World Population prospects.
Table data shows population as of January 1st of that year.
Historical records are based on the current territory of the country. For example, the population of Germany in 1970 includes both East Germany and West Germany.
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.
