I live in new jersey which is very densely populated
Yes in Dubai ;-;
Yes, Netherlands
i live in Norway so no
Small correction: Mongolia and then Namibia are the countries with the least population density, not Australia. Australia comes third.
Fun fact: 🇧🇩Bangladesh is 118 x times smaller than 🇷🇺Russia, but has 26 million more people!!
it's rather sad
islamic country deeply religious will use no condoms , so no surprise there
@@clintstewart5545 racist
Fun Fact: The small Java island in Indonesia has more people than Russia.
@@haroldinho9930 curious as to how
More people live in the Tokyo metro area then in all of Canada
*metropolitian
And Taiwan has the same population as Australia lol.
Other interesting fact
2/3 of Canadians lives in south and west of the Ontario province and east of the Québec province meaning most Canadians lives south of 4 northern American states and in half the size of Michigan.
The population of Bangladesh outnumbers the population of Russia
80% percent of Canadians live close to the United States border. Like within 200 miles or like 500 km.
Mongolia is the least densely populated sovereign country, I am not sure why it's not mentioned.
I get why you excluded micro nations for the most densely populated, but I don't see how it makes sense for the most sparsely populated.
Really? It didn't show up when I looked it up! Although it does look very sparsely populated on the map. Maybe it's the most sparsely populated because everyone lives in the capital? And so the country density itself doesn't reflect that, causing it not to be included in the list?
@@General.Knowledge it's probably because you excluded countries with less than 10 million people, and Mongolia doesn't have 10 million people
I think Denmark would also be pretty dense when you think about how big greenland is
@@schmulwisniewski2421 Buddy I'm mongolian, but you're wrong. Communist did kill many as they usually do, but it was not close to 90%. Even if communist didn't kill any of us, mongolias agriculture and weather is unsuitable for a large population. I believe if we had began developing after ww2 rather than after the soviets fall in 90s, then we may have 20 million population max.
@@General.Knowledge Isn't interesting that Mongolia, the least densely populated sovereign nation, once controlled the largest empire in human history
Canada, Russia and Northern Europe after climate change: *Stonks*
If the Ice caps melt Greenland will split away from Denmark and become the new China
@@DarwinskiYT but theres so few native greenlanders, I doubt they could ever build a functioning, prosperous independent economy.
Its much more likely that a bunch of danes settle there once it has good economic opportunity, tightening denmarks grip on greenland.
No :(
@@free_boiling4502 more like half of eu population settling there and other northern areas, since Greenland is part of Denmark and Denmark is part of the EU. Soon enough half of Europe will be a desert and the other half will be flooded, no hope with climate change.
But only if the gulf stream won't stop
The line separating China reminded me of the Bhutan flag 🇧🇹
I’m kinda shocked how Bangladesh 🇧🇩 isn’t mentioned in this video, not that I’m proud of having such a densely populated country as my motherland country…
you forgot about Mongolia. its the least densely populated sovereign country with 2 people per square km
But it has less than 10 millions
Malta has never had such a large population historically, it is due to the introduction of globalism that a lot of people, especially as the 21st century kicked off, started coming to Malta. Today 1/5th of the population are foreigners, which puts a massive strain on the country as it pushes real estate prices upwards and we continuously suffer from over development.
I live in Malta. The main reason why its so densely populated is due to the number of people who come here to work.
Western and Central Europeans all get jobs working in iGaming here. If its not iGaming, then its tourism. In summer, there is a lot of people from Eastern Europe who come and work in restaurants, bars and clubs for 8 months. There is also a lot of Eastern Europeans who work as builders. Basically everywhere you go, there is a construction site on every block. There is also a lot of Indians, Pakistanis and Bangladeshis who work as nurses, cooks and delivery drivers. Then there is a lot of Philippines who are bus drivers and also cleaners.
That may explain 100K people... but what about the 400K other people? There was a recent increase in the foreign nationals largely due to the economy doing well- More jobs- not enough people to work- we need more people to work....
I am Maltese as well and can confirm both the claims made in this comment. My dad is Serbian (Eastern European) and he works in tile-laying. And if you ever been to the only water park in Malta and went to the restaurant there, all Pakistani staff.
@@cl6374 are you not mad outzyiders take all the jobs there?????
@@mechanikalbull5626 There are not enough Maltese to work those jobs man. Having so many outsiders take your job is the result if you do not make enough childeren.
Do you think climate is also a factor?
As someone who is from Malta and Maltese myself, the explaination is very accurate 😌👏🏼🇲🇹

Ma moleeee
i think delhi and mumbai are more densely populated than tokyo
Also Jakarta
Well done! Always learning with this channel
It is surprising what a big difference can happen in a few years.
In February of 2021, several months before this video was published, Malta's population was around 450,000 people, Giving my tiny country a density of 1424 ppl/km2.
Today, in February of 2023, the population is roughly of 515,000, raising the density up to almost 1630 ppl/km2.
Great video, man.
Keep up your excellent work!
its actually 530000 something, and the numbers are way off, in 2021 we reached 500000
"Australia basically doesn't exist"
Theory confirmed.
Happy flat earth theorist noises
its more bc of how most of the country is desert the two largest cities are in the East and in fact the more populated areas are 'grasslands'
@@paintingdreams290 18% of the country is desert. That’s far from most of the country

Sou brasileiro e sempre suspeitei que você falava português, um pouco pelo sotaque, um pouco pela escolha de países nos vídeos, mas principalmente pelo nome do canal, que traduzindo pode-se ler “conhecimento geral” ou “general conhecimento”, um bom trocadilho.
Continua com os excelentes vídeos, Parabéns

Obrigado!
@@General.Knowledge Um português com orgulho tenho a certeza 🤩 é pena ter poucas pessoas que realmente queiram aprender mais sobre história e geografia cá em Portugal, e por teres o sotaque Português de Portugal acho que um canal em português também não iria apelar muito ao público brasileiro …. Fizeste bem em escolher o canal com a língua inglesa 🙌 Continuação de um ótimo trabalho 🇵🇹❤️
A meu ver isso da tradução do nome do canal não disse nada porque tem o mesmo efeito quer no português, quer no inglês. E até noutros idiomas também, por exemplo, se eu fizer a tradução ao espanhol seria "General Conocimiento" tendo o mesmo efeito que no português e não é por causa disso que eu vou achar que ele é espanhol ou falante da língua, não é? 😂
This video was awesome I learnt so much about densely and sparsely populated countries. Like always loved this video.
In the U.S., the house of representatives is based on the population size of each state. Since the U.S. is basically a confederation of different states, the Senate was created to further cement the ties of the state governments to the federal government. A comparison would be the EU parliament, or seeing the Senate as something akin to state "ambassadors" to the federal government.
i also thought about that thanks for clearifying
Thank you for explaining it with the facts. Always love seeing someone educating rather than politically scolding!
We still need to reform senate. People are more educated today than late 18th century. We need equal representation
@@geraldmeehan8942 equal representation is given by the house of representatives. That's not the function of the Senate.
@@bmjv77 If that's the case they need stripped of some of their power it's not 1789 anymore
Fun fact: The lowest population density region in China is also the largest slave labour place in China.
It's nice to learn new things each day.
Pog
nice
Uyghurs?
How exactly is that a "fun" fact?
The lowest density region is Tibet and there is no slave labor in Xinjiang if you are talking about that. My dad works there and there is only re-education camps where people have to read and write Xi’s words for those who wants independence. But you guys wouldn’t even care cuz u will just call me a CCP troll and continue to believe in Western lies.
I knew it! I knew you were from Portugal! Um abraço, seu canal é maravillhoso!
The US House of Representatives does most of the policy functions (economic, foreign relations, military) while the US Senate is mostly the administrative wing (confirming federal positions, hearings, etc.), although they both have to sign off on legislation for a bill to pass and both can initiate legislation (except for the federal budget; that has to originate from the House). The House functions as the voice for the people (for the first few decades of its history, a US citizen would only vote in state and local elections, and their only federal election would be to elect their representative) and the Senate functions as a voice for the states (they were nominated by their state's legislature until 1913 when the Constitution was amended to have senators be directly elected by their constituents).
I think the word you were looking for to describe farmland or land sutable for cultivation is, "arable."
Great video. Very well done, indeed. I look forward to your next one.
Exactly! Thanks!
You asked for my opinion! I really liked the video 👍
A lot of facts i didnt knew before, quality content as always.
i love your videos
thank you
i really like youre productions, always super interesting, obrigado👍👍
Great video!!
Seu canal é fantástico!!!
Sup General; It'd be really cool to see another "what if" video.. such as, "What if every continent became a country?".
Great video, population density of a country doesn't show the true picture as the larger countries like will always have low density, but number of high density cities and the population density will be more usable, like you explained.
Obrigado, good video!
You could also have mentioned Java with a population density of 1.121/km2.
I live in the Netherlands and learned in school that our country was the most densily populated in the world. That was 50 years ago. Now we are overtaken by Bangla Desh, Lebanon, Taiwan and South Korea.
the senate is even for each state so those few states don’t control the whole country, the house of representatives is by pop.
One thing you didn't mention in brazil is how most of it, outside like a 100km line near to the coast, is montainous/in a plateau.
"Australia basically doesn't exist"

How about a video on the Caribbean specifically, riches, population etc.
That Tenchong line is fascinating.
Then there is the question of where the population could move to to open up the pressures.
(For instance, Alaska is a LOT more habitable than most people realize.)
In India, north Indian states have a higher population density when compared to south
Gujarat, rajasthan and north east have lowest density
@@ayushmeena780 UP is the most populated state
@@gokulbalagopal1680 well you said south Indian states have lower population density than North Indian states but that's not the case
Kerala have higher population density than UP and similarly many north states have lower population density than some South states
If we take all area north east have lowest population density comparatively
🥵 My Singapore is too crowded.. Things were great when our population was 4mil..
Very nice video
It's interesting to see how different population densities are.
One other reason for high density that was missed: access to trade routes.
It was justifiable to list countries with high density only above a certain population to avoid microstates, but for countries with a low density, surely it would be better to list those over a certain area. Geographically large countries like Mongolia and Namibia are the least densely populated.
how about a series about coat of arms?
Hi, the regional divisions in the two Portugal political maps you show around minute 12:20 have different inner divisions, why is that? Greetings from Catalonia
If you compared im pretty sure your find that the world density map pretty much matches up with most of the ancient civilizations areas
Thanks, very nice.
Interesting to see more about population decline in Europe. I'd never thought about it - I guess the areas of Portugal losing population are rural areas. If it's mostly farming, I guess you need fewer people as things have mechanised. So it would be interesting to see other countries where parts have declined, with the reasons for this.
5:48 thought there was a piece of hair at the bottom left corner of my screen
7:42 he knows the truth!
The density spread in a few countries is very interesting as there are similar geological conditions that lead to this for example deeper inland sections of northern and central China have what is called "folds" where the earth is stretched and rotates over millions of years leading to many rows of mountains and valleys and this can lead to issues of flooding, difficult terrain for agriculture but China over centuries found uses for it like growing rice. This is similar situation in parts of western USA with folds in states like Nevada but being a desert means it is mostly empty and used for military and mining with a few small exceptions. Another example is that much of northern Canada is land that was pushed down by the weight of ice from the past ice age and the land is still rising back up again but for now it is nothing but an incredible size land with no trees and water saturated wetlands where you cannot build or farm. This is very very similar to much of northern Russia and Scandinavia.
7:41 "Australia basically doesn't exist.
Yeah that's about right.
«Australia basically doesn’t exist» - I see what you did there 😉
I had no idea that you were Portuguese but now you've mentioned it I can hear it lol

As an aussie i felt that
"australia, the lowest population density in the world"
greenland:
Greenland is not an independent country. Mongolia is and has lower population density than Australia.
@@Koopa3000 Mongolia didn't meet the 10M+ population threshold.
@@Koopa3000 But what is an "independent" country? Places like Greenland are largely self governing and Denmark which nominally owns the place has little control over it. The video mentions Gibraltar which goes even further, it is 100% self governing and Britain has no control over it at all. That makes them *effectively* more independent than many client states that are technically independent, but under the control of another country.
@@Koopa3000 aside from the title he never specified that australia has the lowest density as a country, he simply said its the lowest value in the world
U r not funny

I always like seeing these maps; my favourite one is Egypt. Really drives home how it's a river/delta and then a whole bunch of sand. Also, take that Canadian flag background and throw it in the garbage. What, was it made by somebody drawing the flag from memory without thinking to just google it first? Haha
If you look at density population of the US, you see population on east coast and west coast. As for interior, you can draw a line at 100 degrees. Because agronomy stipulated the line of good amount of rain for crops stop at 100th meridian.
As you did a cut off to remove outliers with the high population density (only allowing countries with over 10 million people) then you shouldn't do the same cutoff line for low density, instead you should make a maximum area (500 000 km^2) for example, that would remove the extremes to make a comparable list to the restricted high population density one.

Canada population density is largely due to the climate and historical facts. As mentionned in the video, the first part of the territory to be colonized is around the St-Lawrence River. These lands were easy to access by water and were very fertile for agriculture. The name Quebec came from a native word meaning something like “ narrow passing”, because the St-Lawrence River become narrower in front of Quebec city. Actually, before 1825 the big merchandise boats were not able to go further than Montreal. Then the Lachine Canal was build and it gave access to the Great Lakes.

I was born in America, and lived in one of the denser populated Areas. I now live in Japan (ALT) and I still live in a densely populated area (not Tokyo, another area). But I love visiting areas that aren't as populated. I love taking pictures of the mountains and forests (as well as wild animals).
Actually, even living in a denser populated area, it's still awesome to see the juxtaposition of different things. Maybe it's just where I live, but I live in an apartment building, next to traditional Japanese houses, with a forest park, and a temple nearby. It's quite amazing!
