1,330,044,605

1,330,044,605

Can you even start to wrap your head around that number. That could fill the Mile High Stadium nearly 17,000 times over.
That is 1/5 of the worlds entire population.

The 5 most highly populated areas in China alone hold more than double the population of the entire state of Colorado.





  • Mumbai: 13,922,125
  • Shanghai: 13,481,600
  • Karachi: 12,991,000
  • Istanbul: 11,372,613
  • Delhi: 11,325,124


Some people believe the massive population of China was because of WWII. The Chinese saw children as an investment for the future. This idea was over used and soon China became over populated. Others believe it was because of sex, lack of sex education, or social theories like the demographic-economic paradox.
