Países Más Poblados del Mundo

La población mundial ha superado los 8 mil millones de personas, pero esta población está lejos de estar distribuida de manera uniforme. Solo dos países — China e India — representan más del 35% de la población mundial. Los diez países más poblados albergan juntos más de 4,4 mil millones de personas, más de la mitad de la humanidad. Las tasas de crecimiento demográfico varían enormemente: mientras muchas naciones africanas crecen rápidamente, países como Japón y gran parte de Europa enfrentan poblaciones en declive.
