THE WORLD POPULATION: DISTRIBUTION, DENSITY AND GROWTH
Patterns of population distribution globally are a means to understand how people are spread out across different regions and what characteristics define these distributions. It’s interesting to note that 90% of the global population lives in about 10% of the land area, indicating a high concentration of individuals in certain regions. Among the ten most populous countries contributing to about 60% of the world’s total population, six are located in Asia.
The six Asian countries among the ten most populous globally are:
1.China
2.India
3.Indonesia
