Map of the world adjusted for the population of each country. World population density map in Russian Contour map of world population density

Reddit user TeaDranks created a map in which the size of each country is resized according to its population. So what do you think? Recognized world giants are suddenly sharply reduced in size... Yes, yes, we are talking about Canada and Russia. Our country is still the largest in Europe, but it is openly being squeezed from the east by China.

Each country retains its geographical location - which means it remains completely recognizable.

South America and Europe (with the exception of Russia) have not changed much in size. North America looks like its head has been cut off, and China and India barely fit into the map. Africa as a whole has retained its shape, although it is now clearly dominated by Nigeria.

Poor Australia can barely be seen, and Japan and the Philippines look much larger than usual.

Each cell on the map “accommodates” 500 thousand people - which means that some countries are not included on it at all.

The history of any state is, first of all, the history of its cities. In the USA, the dynamics of the development of the country's cities has been published. It shows that several large agglomerations have always existed in the country at the same time and situations where one city (like Moscow in the Russian Federation) openly dominates the entire country have not arisen there.

When did this science begin and why? How do urban scientists obtain the data they need, and how does it help in applied urbanism? Ruslan Dokhov, urban geographer, Habidatum, RxD Lead talks about how social networks and phones help collect information about the city, how and for what purposes databases are compiled, and how urban urbanism is developing with the help of modern technologies.

This publication differs from many others in that a biologist writes about demographic problems. With the development of ethology, social biology and other sciences about animal behavior, biologists began to encroach on a special point of view regarding the behavior of Homo sapiens. Naturally, this causes an unfavorable reaction among sociologists and psychologists; the invasion of aliens from biology into their protected territory seems at first like blasphemy. And yet...

A series of documentaries dedicated to the wild and original tribes of Africa. The life of the Woodabi and Tuareg tribes is a daily struggle for survival in the merciless desert heat. The Mursi are a people whose lives are determined by what is visible in the night sky. They sacrifice animals, fight enemy tribes, women express devotion to their warrior husbands by stretching their lips to unimaginable sizes. In the southern part of Ethiopia, two exotic tribes live - the Hamar and the Karo. While at war with neighboring tribes, they have lived in peace and harmony with each other for many centuries.

World population in October 1999 exceeded 6 billion people, and in November 2011 - 7 billion people. The largest countries in the world by population are: China, India, USA, Indonesia, Brazil, Pakistan, Russia, Bangladesh, Nigeria, Japan and Mexico.

On population distribution The following factors influence the territory of our planet: climatic conditions, fresh water sources, proximity to seas and oceans, terrain, traditions of the population, development of the territory.

The population is distributed extremely unevenly across the globe. 80% of the world's population lives in the Eastern Hemisphere, 90% in the Northern Hemisphere and 60% in Asia.

The average population density of the Earth is 45 people per 1 km 2.

In terms of population density, foreign Asia and foreign Europe stand out sharply among the main regions of the world, and Australia has the lowest population density.

South America

Australia and Oceania

There are three main ones in the world population area:

East, Southeast and South Asia, where almost half of the world's population lives;
Europe (more than 500 million people);
Eastern USA (more than 230 million people).

In addition to the main distribution areas of the Earth's population, you can find examples very dense population certain areas of the world - o. Java (Indonesia), Fergana Valley (Uzbekistan), Nile Delta (Egypt), along the coast of the Gulf of Guinea, etc.

Poorly populated the regions of the Far North in Eurasia and North America, the desert regions of North and South Africa, South-West Asia, Australia and the highlands of Central Asia, and Antarctica has no permanent population at all.

The highest average world population density have Monaco (about 17 thousand people per 1 km 2), and among non-dwarf states - Bangladesh (more than 1,100 people per 1 km 2), and the smallest is Greenland (0.03 people per 1 km 2), and among independent countries - Mongolia (2 people per 1 km 2) (Table 2).

Detailed solution to topic Topic 3 in geography for 10th grade students, authors V.P. Maksakovsky Basic level 2017

Task 1. Analyze Fig. 7. Calculate how many times the world's population has increased from the beginning of our era to 2010. By how many millions of people did it increase in the 19th and 20th centuries? Make other calculations and comparisons to prove the provisions of the textbook.

By 2010, the Earth's population had increased 30 times compared to the population at the beginning of our era. Thus, over the 20th century, the population increased by 4.41 billion people (from 1.66 billion in 1900 to 6.07 billion in 2000), and in the first decade of the 21st century (2000-2010) it grew by another 0. 83 billion people.

Task 2. Using data from the textbook, draw six countries on a contour map of the world, which account for 50% of the world's population.

Task 3. Use fig. 10 to specify the provisions of the textbook. Using it, characterize the distribution of the first and second types of population reproduction. Analyze the average digital indicators (“formulas”) of reproduction of individual regions, compare them and explain the differences. Please also use Tables 12 and 13 in the Appendices.

The first type of reproduction is typical for the countries of Europe, North America, the CIS, China, Australia and Oceania, countries of Foreign Asia (China, Japan, Thailand), and some countries of Latin America (Chile, Argentina, Uruguay). However, this group is heterogeneous in terms of growth, since the countries of Europe and the CIS have practically zero or close to zero population growth, while for the countries of North America (USA and Canada) the growth ranges from 3 to 6 people. per 1000 inhabitants, or 3-6%o. Such countries (for example, the USA, Australia, Canada) are experiencing quite significant population growth.

The second type of reproduction is typical for African countries, most countries in Latin America, and Asia.

Task 4. Using the data from table. 2, compare the population dynamics of individual large regions of the globe; calculate how their share in the total population of the Earth changes; explain these changes.

Based on the data in the table, we can conclude that the population of the Earth as a whole during the specified period (from 1950 to 2010) increased by 2.7 times. However, population growth rates differ in different regions of the world. The fastest pace is characteristic of Africa (the population increased by 4.6 times by 2010), followed by Latin America (3.5 times) and Foreign Asia (2.9 times). North America and Australia with Oceania differ in average growth rates (2 times). The lowest rates are typical for the CIS countries and Europe (1.5 times and 1.3 times, respectively).

Task 5. Use the text of the textbook and other sources of information to specify the diagram of the demographic transition. Give examples of regions and countries of the world that at the beginning of the 21st century. are at different stages of this transition.

The demographic transition includes 4 stages:

Stage 1 is characterized by very high birth and death rates and, accordingly, very low natural growth (nowadays it almost never occurs);

The 2nd stage is characterized by a sharp reduction in mortality (thanks primarily to advances in medicine) while maintaining the traditionally high birth rate (typical of Bhutan);

During the 3rd stage, low mortality rates are observed (and sometimes even a slight increase in them, associated with the “aging” of the population), the decline in fertility also decreases, but usually it still slightly exceeds mortality, ensuring moderate expanded reproduction and population growth (Turkey) ;

At the 4th stage, fertility and mortality rates coincide (European countries).

Task 6. Analyze the map of the sex composition of the population in the atlas. Use it to specify and illustrate the provisions contained in the text of the textbook.

In approximately 2/3 of the world's countries, women are in the majority. This advantage is most significant in a number of CIS countries, in foreign Europe, and in North America, which is explained by the fact that the average life expectancy of women is usually several years longer. This is also influenced by a number of other factors: standard of living, the presence of wars in the history of the country/region, etc. In Africa, Latin America, Australia and Oceania, the number of men and women is approximately the same. In overseas Asia, men significantly predominate. Regarding the gender structure of the population on a global scale, it is approximately the same (100 women to 101 men).

Task 7. Compare Figures 10 and 11. Use them to prove the textbook’s position on the influence of types of population reproduction on its age composition. How do you explain this interaction?

Countries with a predominance of the first type of population reproduction are characterized by either the same number of children (0-14 years old) and elderly (over 60 years old) population, or a slight predominance of children (for Europe, 16% of children and 17% of older people). While in countries with the second type of population reproduction, the number of children in the total population structure is several times higher than the elderly population (for Asia 28% of children and 6% of elderly people, Africa 42% and 3%, respectively).

Task 8. Analyze Fig. 9. Explain the differences between the age-sex pyramids of countries of the first and second types of population reproduction.

Countries with the first type of population reproduction are characterized by approximately the same ratio of men and women in the age-sex structure, which is explained by the high standard of living and medicine. In countries with the second type of reproduction, there is a predominance of men in the age groups from birth to 30 years, which is explained by the social position of women in society (humiliation, early marriage, preference for having male children due to religion, etc.). Then the number of women and men in the age structure equalizes, which can be explained by the increased mortality of men due to heavy physical labor and a not very high level of medical care.

Task 9. Using Internet search engines, find information about the results of the population census in Russia conducted in October 2010. Based on these data, build an age-sex pyramid of Russia on this date.

According to the results of the 2010 population census, the total population is 142,856,536 people. Data taken from http://www.gks.ru

Task 10. Using the map of the national composition of the population in the atlas, study the main language families and areas of their distribution around the globe. Determine which language families' peoples predominate in foreign Europe, foreign Asia, Africa, North and South America, Australia and Oceania. Write your conclusions in your notebook.

The most widespread language family is Indo-European. The languages of this family are spoken by 150 peoples with a total population of more than 3 billion people, belonging to 11 language groups and living in all parts of the world. In foreign Europe and America, the languages of this family are spoken by 95% of the total population. Approximately 1.8 billion people. speak languages of the Sino-Tibetan family, mainly Chinese, more than 300 million speak languages of the Afroasiatic family, mainly Arabic. The number of most other families is much smaller.

Task 11. Explain:

11.1. Why do not only the British speak English, but also residents of the USA, Canada, Australia, New Zealand, and South Africa? Why is English widely spoken in India, Pakistan, Bangladesh and many other countries?

India, Pakistan, and Bangladesh were colonies of Great Britain for a long time, and therefore English is widely spoken there. And since Great Britain had extensive colonial possessions and traded around the world, English became one of the main languages for international communication. The USA, Canada, Australia and New Zealand are countries that were founded by settlers from the Old World, including from Great Britain.

11.2. Why was the Spanish language until the 16th century? dominated only in Spain, and is now the official and native language of most peoples of Latin America?

Since from the 16th century, Spain began to pursue an active policy of conquering new lands in the New World (Latin America), which then became the colonial possessions of Spain for several centuries.

11.3. Why is the Arabic language, which until the 7th century. used only by the population of the Arabian Peninsula, then spread throughout North Africa?

The spread of the Arabic language in North Africa is associated with the conquest of these territories and their inclusion in the Arab state of the Caliphate (founded in the early 7th century on the territory of Saudi Arabia) and the spread of Islam as the main religion of this state.

Task 12. Based on the map of religions in the atlas, characterize the areas of distribution of world religions. Determine which religions predominate in certain large regions of the Earth.

The most common religions are Christianity (Catholicism, Protestantism and Orthodoxy), Islam and Buddhism. In the Old and New Worlds, Catholicism and Protestantism predominate), and these branches of Christianity are also common in Australia and Africa, which is associated with the colonial past of these regions. Orthodoxy is widespread in the CIS countries. Islam is widespread in North and Central Africa, as well as South-West and Central Asia. Adherents of Judaism mainly live in India and its neighboring countries. Also among the most widespread religions is Buddhism (China, eastern Russia).

Task 13. Analyze the population density map in the atlas. Highlight regions with high density on it and try to explain the reasons for their occurrence. By overlaying a physical map of the world and a population density map in the atlas, determine what types of extreme conditions are not conducive to human settlement. Give examples of countries with particularly sharp differences in the population of the territory, explain their reasons.

The world's population is distributed extremely unevenly: about 2/3 of all people live on 8% of the land area. The highest population density is typical for Europe, South Asia (India, Bangladesh), and Southeast Asia. Population density is influenced by natural and historical factors. People settled and developed first of all the most favorable territories for life: lowlands and plains located at an altitude of up to 500 m above sea level, regions with a warm, favorable climate. Also, throughout the history of human civilization, the settlement of people has been strongly affected by the attraction to transport and trade routes.

Task 14. Using the Internet, find information about the population density of countries around the world. Based on them, create a classification table with examples of three to five countries that have population density indicators (people/km2): 1) less than 10; 2) from 10 to 100; 3) from 101 to 200; 4) from 201 to 500; 5) over 500.

Task 15. Using the data from the work performed, prove with specific examples that the level of socio-economic development of a particular country cannot be judged by population density.

The population density in a country is in no way related to the level of its socio-economic development, so among the countries with the maximum density (>500) there are both developed countries (Singapore, Monaco) and developing countries (Bangladesh).

Task 16. Using the main text of the textbook, plot the main areas of labor immigration on a contour map of the world. Show with arrows where labor comes from in these areas.

Task 17. Using Fig. 14 and table. 16 in "Appendices", explore the placement of the world's largest cities. Distribute them among major regions and countries and characterize the general trend of changes.

The largest number of large cities (more than 5 million people) are located in North and Latin America, Europe, and Southeast Asia (India, China), which are the most densely populated regions of the world. One can identify a trend towards the formation of such agglomerations (more than 5 million) in Africa (Lagos).

Task 18. Using the website googl-maps, look at satellite images of the world's largest urban agglomerations and compare their geographic microlocations.

After analyzing satellite images of the world's largest agglomerations, we can conclude that capitals and the most important industrial and port centers often become the cores of the largest urban agglomerations.

Task 19. Use fig. 15 and a map of world urbanization in the atlas to concretize and illustrate the provisions contained in the text of the textbook. Determine which indicators of the level of urbanization can be considered very high, high, medium, low, very low for a particular country. Show this with examples. Consider the distribution of highly, medium and low urbanized countries and try to explain it.

The most urbanized countries are typical for North and Latin America, Europe, the CIS, Australia and South-West Asia. Medium and weakly urbanized countries are typical for Africa and Asia. Modern urbanization as a worldwide process has three common features that are characteristic of most countries: 1 - rapid growth of the urban population (especially in less developed countries), 2 - concentration of population and economy mainly in large cities, 3 - urban sprawl, expansion their territories.

Task 20. Using the data from table. 4, construct a map of the urban population of large regions of the world in 1950 and 2010 on a contour map of the world. Analyze it and draw conclusions.

Conclusion: During the second half of the 20th century, the world's population increased from 750 million people to 3.7 billion people. The populations of Asia, Africa and Latin America have grown particularly rapidly.

Task 21. Analyze the data in the table. 4. Calculate how many times the urban population increased in certain regions of the world in 1950-2010. Calculate the share of individual regions in the total urban population of the world. Make a table in your workbook. What provisions of the textbook support her data? Also use the table. 16 in "Applications".

Task 22. Work in a notebook.

22.1. Based on the acquired knowledge, make a table of the leading features of the concept of “urbanization”.

22.2. Based on the acquired knowledge, name the reasons for the following phenomena:

a) Mortality rates in developing countries have fallen in recent decades, but fertility rates have remained high?

Answer: The reduction in mortality is observed due to an increase in the level of medicine in developing countries and a gradual improvement in living standards.

b) China and India are the most active in pursuing government demographic policies?

Answer: China and India are the world leaders in terms of population. In this regard, they have problems providing the population with food, jobs, education, etc. By pursuing a planned state policy, China and India are trying to regulate the birth rate and, as a result, the population in order to increase the standard of living in the country.

c) Is the world population unevenly distributed?

Answer: The world population is unevenly distributed. So 2/3 of all people live on 8% of the land area.

d) Is the urban population concentrated primarily in large cities?

Answer: Large cities have better infrastructure, which attracts people from rural areas to cities. However, it is worth noting that there is no single concept of “city” for all countries. So for some countries a large city will have a population of more than 100 thousand people, and for another country with a population of 5000 thousand or less.

22.3. Compile a glossary of new terms that you came across while studying the topic.

Demographic policy is a system of administrative, economic, propaganda and other measures through which the state influences the natural movement of the population (primarily the birth rate) in the direction it desires.

Demographic transition is a historically rapid decline in fertility and mortality, as a result of which population reproduction is reduced to simple replacement of generations.

Economic activity of the population is the degree of involvement of the population in economic production.

22.4. Study text maps and atlas maps describing the world's population. Determine by what cartographic methods they are compiled. In your opinion, what information can be obtained as a result of their analysis?

When creating maps characterizing the world's population, a huge number of cartographic methods are used, among which the most common are:

Method of qualitative background (to indicate population size and density, mortality, birth rate, etc.);

Point method (used to designate populated areas);

Movement signs (applicable to such social phenomena as population migration);

Maps and cartograms (serve to translate into a visual image such statistical data as the birth rate, religious and ethnic composition, etc.).

22.5. Prepare a short oral report on the topic “The population explosion and its consequences” or “Urbanization in the modern world.”

The population explosion is a figurative designation for the rapid quantitative growth of the world population that began in the 1950s. The main reason that led to this explosion is a decrease in the mortality rate while maintaining high birth rates. The reduction in the mortality rate was influenced by: the development of healthcare, the spread of hygiene measures, and the improvement of material living conditions. Population growth rates differ in developed and developing countries. Population growth is particularly rapid in developing countries, while the rate is slower in developed countries.

Consequences of the population explosion: extremely rapid growth of the Earth's population, increasing unevenness in the distribution of the world's population (9/10 of the Earth's population lives in developing countries).

Self-control and mutual control block

How would you explain:

1. What are the main features and indicators of the first and second types of population reproduction?

The first type of population reproduction is characterized by low rates of birth rate, death rate and, accordingly, natural increase. The second type of population reproduction is characterized by high and very high fertility and natural increase rates and relatively low mortality rates.

2. What reasons influence the distribution and density of the world's population?

The distribution of the population is influenced by natural factors, so first of all the population populates territories with favorable conditions. The historical factor plays a significant role. Today, the distribution of the population is influenced by the level of economic development of a region of the world, a country.

3. What changes have occurred since the Second World War in the nature and geography of external migrations of the world's population?

After World War II, international migration rates began to increase again, leading to a new “migration explosion.” The main reason for these migrations is economic, since the countries destroyed after the war had a bad economic situation.

4. What are the main common features of the global urbanization process?

The main features of the urbanization process: rapid growth of the urban population, concentration of the population in large cities with developed infrastructure, expansion of cities due to the inclusion of new territories with a rural population within the city limits.

How do you think:

1. What did the famous Russian geographer A.I. mean? Voeikov, when he wrote: “The decisive factor in the distribution of the population is not so much the environment surrounding a person, but the person himself”?

Since a person can change his habitat to suit himself, a person’s choice of place of residence may not depend on natural conditions and be based only on his preferences.

2. Why does the average population density of the Earth tend to constantly increase?

As the world's population is constantly growing, the average population density is also increasing.

3. Why was one of the UN reports called “Our Demographically Divided World”?

The level of socio-economic development of a country affects the birth rate. Thus, in developed countries, the birth rate is low (slightly more than, equal to, or less than the death rate). In developing countries the situation is the opposite. So high birth rate and relatively low death rate. Thus, the world is divided into regions that differ greatly in the level of natural population growth.

4. Are those demographers right who believe that the 21st century will be the century of the aging of the Earth's population?

This opinion has a right to be, since in developed countries there is zero or negative natural growth, which leads to an increase in older people in the age structure. As more and more countries reach a high level of socio-economic development, it can be assumed that the proportion of older people in these countries will also increase.

Did you know:

1. Which of the following “formulas” for population reproduction applies to countries of the second type of reproduction: 14-8=6 or 22-8=14?

The second formula characterizes countries with the second type of reproduction.

2. What do the following countries have in common: a) Kenya, Kuwait, Indonesia, Vietnam, Algeria, Nicaragua; b) France, Canada, Bulgaria, Australia, Cuba, Japan?

The countries listed in point A are countries with the second type of population reproduction. Point B lists countries with the first type of population reproduction.

3. Which of the following peoples belong to the Indo-European family of languages: Chinese, Hindustani, Russians, Japanese, Brazilians, American Americans, British?

Answer: Hindustani, Russian, English.

4. In which of the following countries does the majority of the population profess Catholicism: 1) Ukraine; 2) The Netherlands; 3) Italy; 4) Greece; 5) Philippines; 6) Indonesia; 7) Sudan; 8) Argentina?

Answer: Italy, Philippines, Argentina.

Can you:

2. Define the concepts of “population reproduction”, “urbanization”?

Urbanization is the growth of cities, an increase in the share of the urban population in a country, region, and world, the emergence and development of increasingly complex networks and systems of cities.

Population reproduction is understood as the totality of the processes of fertility, mortality and natural increase, which ensure the continuous renewal and change of human generations.

3. Give examples of countries in the second, third and fourth stages of the demographic transition?

1st stage: Sudan.

Stage 2: Butane.

Stage 3: Türkiye.

4th stage: Germany.

4. Indicate which of the following countries belong to the first and which to the second type of population reproduction: Austria, India, Jordan, Italy, Mozambique, Sudan, Tajikistan, Uganda, Philippines, Australia?

The first type of reproduction includes: Austria, Italy, Australia, Philippines.

To the second type of reproduction: India, Mozambique, Sudan, Uganda, Jordan, Tajikistan.

5. Characterize the geographical features of the first and second types of population reproduction and the grouping of countries within them?

The first type of population reproduction is typical for the countries of Europe, the CIS, North America, Australia and some Latin American countries (Argentina, Uruguay, Chile).

Second type of reproduction: countries of Africa, Asia, most countries of Latin America.

6. Tell us about the meaning of the average life expectancy indicator and give its quantitative characteristics?

Life expectancy is an important general criterion for the health status of a nation. At the beginning of the 21st century. Life expectancy for the entire world is 69 years (67 years for men and 72 years for women). For economically developed countries they are 75 and 81, for developing countries - 66 and 69, including for the least developed countries - 55 and 58 years.

7. Describe the ethnolinguistic classification of the peoples of the world?

The classification of peoples by language is based on the principle of their kinship. This relationship is usually associated with the origin of several languages from one proto-language. The most common of them is the Indo-European family. The languages of this family are spoken by 150 peoples with a total population of more than 3 billion people. In foreign Europe and America, the languages of this family are spoken by 95% of the total population. Approximately 1.8 billion people. speak languages of the Sino-Tibetan family, mainly Chinese, more than 300 million speak languages of the Afroasiatic family, mainly Arabic.

8. Choose the correct answer: Islam is professed by the majority of the inhabitants of: Spain, India, Iran, Pakistan, Indonesia, Algeria, Brazil?

Answer: Iran, Pakistan, Indonesia, Algeria.

9. Indicate which of the following regions and countries are the main centers for attracting labor migration: Western Europe, the Gulf countries, Southeast Asia, North Africa, North America, Russia, Australia, Germany?

Answer: Western Europe, Gulf countries, North America, Germany, Australia.

10. Mark the ten largest cities in the world on a contour map of the world from memory.

(Data taken for 2015)

11. Distribute the countries listed below according to their level of urbanization (in descending order): Australia, China, USA, Great Britain, Ethiopia, Argentina, Germany?

Answer: Ethiopia - 15% of the country's population, China - 47% of the country's population, Germany - 75%, USA - 80%, Argentina - 87%, Australia - 88%, UK - 89%.
