More interesting, imo - China and India host over a third of the world population. Each host more than the next five combined.

Also interesting to me that India surpassed China's population. I know that their growth rate was significantly higher, but I thought they were still a ways off from surpassing them. With the birth rates a lot higher in India than China, I wonder how much larger their population will grow and what it will mean for global culture and communications.

Wow, I had no idea that Indonesia has almost 300,000,000 people. That’s pretty interesting!
