Half of this territory is occupied by only 10 countries, while there are at least 206 different states on the planet. It is these giants in terms of area and population that make up the list 10 largest countries in the world.

The largest state on the territory of the African continent and the first on our list is the Algerian People's Democratic Republic. It occupies 2.381 million km 2 and the Sahara Desert, which is part of the country, contributes to this to a greater extent.

There are states on our planet that we only heard about in geography lessons. Entire worlds with their charters, mentality, who live on the other side of the world.

They are not well known, because they do not lead an active foreign policy, the scale of their land and production within do not affect other countries.

Other countries are powerful fighters for rights, active helpers for neighboring states.

They are endowed with a huge scale of territories, they supply their "neighbors" with products and minerals. Their territory is so vast that it is difficult to imagine.

Everyone who went to school knows an approximate list of the largest states in the world. Let's refresh our knowledge by remembering their names and the scale of the area.

List of the largest countries in the world:

The first 7 countries in the list are classified as giants in terms of territory. Any state whose size exceeds 3,000,000 km² is gigantic.

The territory of Russia is the undoubted leader. Nearly twice the size of second-place Canada.

Interesting fact! Under the USSR, our territory was even larger. Its size almost reached the territory of the whole of North America.

The lion's share - three-quarters of the land - belonged to Russia. One sixth of the earth's space belonged to the USSR.

This order was maintained from 1922 to 1991. The area of ​​the USSR is 22,402,200 km². 293,047,571 people lived in these expanses.

The largest countries by population

Population is another indicator. Territory and population vary greatly. The leaders of the previous table change dramatically.

The number does not depend on wealth, on the contrary: poor countries have a large number. Climate, national peculiarities, mentality matter.

List of countries with the most large numbers population:

  1. India.
  2. Indonesia.
  3. Pakistan.
  4. Brazil.
  5. Nigeria.
  6. Bangladesh.
  7. Russia.
  8. Japan.

Russia occupies only 9th position. China is in the lead, Russians have long been making jokes about the situation with population growth. And in vain, because in Russia the situation is reversed.

With a high population, the birth rate in the country is at a low level. In 2016, the birth rate in Russia amounted to 12.9%, and the mortality statistics showed exactly the same.

Today, our country has an active policy to support mothers with children. New laws are being adopted that will improve the financial situation of families with children.

But, as statistics show, the point is not the material well-being of the country.

Leaders in natural population growth:

  1. Malawi - 33.2%.
  2. Uganda - 33%.
  3. Burundi - 32.7%.
  4. Niger - 32.7%.
  5. Mali - 31.8%.

These countries cannot be called developed and wealthy. The birth rate is taken from the same ratio.

Another amazing pattern: in these countries, the mortality rate is lower than in Russia, which occupies - attention - 201 lines in the ranking in terms of population growth! We are in 201st place. These are the data for 2016.

In 2017, due to the wave of the financial crisis, the situation did not improve. The mortality rate has decreased, but with it there has been a real collapse in the birth rate.

So we are still far from the indicators of Malawi and Uganda. Mortality in 2017 was 12.6%. Men don't live past 60. The female indicator is 71 years old.

Country rankings by standard of living in 2017

The effect of wealth on fertility is a dubious issue. Developed countries are known for having the smallest birth rate.

Psychologists explain this by the lack of a sense of fear, which activates the instinct of self-preservation in residents with a low standard of living.

The instinct of self-preservation encourages people to leave offspring after themselves. The worse they live, the stronger the desire to continue the race, to give birth to more children in order to increase the likelihood of continuing life.

Developed countries provide stability, and people do not have such an instinct.

In addition to the survival instinct, the culture of the country also influences the birth rate. In the East, it is customary to start large families.

They sincerely cannot understand what childfree is, and how such people can even exist.

Interesting information! Childfree - families that reject the idea of ​​having and maintaining children.

Top 5 countries leading in terms of living standards in 2017:

  1. Norway.
  2. Australia.
  3. Sweden.
  4. Switzerland.
  5. Netherlands.

The Netherlands ranks 184th in terms of population growth. It is just over 2%.
Sweden - 180th place.
Switzerland - 182nd place.
Norway - 169th place in the ranking, population growth of 4.1%.
Australia - 159th place, 4.9%. The death rate does not exceed the birth rate - this is a positive indicator for states.

Many countries have a negative rate of natural population growth.

The list includes world powers:

  • Poland.
  • Moldova.
  • Czech Republic.
  • Bosnia and Herzegovina.
  • Italy.
  • Japan.
  • Portugal.
  • Estonia.
  • France.
  • Greece.
  • Belarus.
  • Romania.
  • Monaco.
  • Germany.
  • Croatia.
  • Slovenia.
  • Hungary.
  • Ukraine.
  • Latvia.
  • Lithuania.
  • Serbia.
  • Bulgaria.

The birth rate in these states ranges from 8 to 10%, and the death rate: from 9 to 13%.

Comparative data show that the demographic state of affairs in Russia is relatively good.

Financial crisis recent years affected fertility, but the numbers give hope for a better outcome. Mortality and birth rates are at least equal. The ongoing policy of our country is aimed at preserving the nation.

Along with the birth rate, the number of marriages in Russia also decreased in 2017.

But the government continues to introduce new laws that will help restore the balance between mortality and fertility in the direction of increasing natural growth.
