Russia is the largest country in the world by far, with a total area of just over 17 million square kilometers. After Antarctica, the next three countries are Canada, the U.S., and China; all between 9.5 and 10 million square kilometers. The figures given include internal water surface area (such as lakes or rivers) - if the figures were for land surface only then China would be the second largest country in the world, the U.S. third, and Canada (the country with more lakes than the rest of the world combined) fourth. Russia Russia has a population of around 145 million people, putting it in the top ten most populous countries in the world, and making it the most populous in Europe. However, it's vast size gives it a very low population density, ranked among the bottom 20 countries. Most of Russia's population is concentrated in the west, with around 75 percent of the population living in the European part, while around 75 percent of Russia's territory is in Asia; the Ural Mountains are considered the continental border. Elsewhere in the world Beyond Russia, the world's largest countries all have distinctive topographies and climates setting them apart. The United States, for example, has climates ranging from tundra in Alaska to tropical forests in Florida, with various mountain ranges, deserts, plains, and forests in between. Populations in these countries are often concentrated in urban areas, and are not evenly distributed across the country. For example, around 85 percent of Canada's population lives within 100 miles of the U.S. border; around 95 percent of China lives east of the Heihe–Tengchong Line that splits the country; and the majority of populations in large countries such as Australia or Brazil live near the coast.

The statistic shows the largest countries in Central America, based on land area. Nicaragua is the largest country in the subregion, with a total area of over 130 thousand square kilometers, followed by Honduras, with more than 112 thousand square kilometers.

The average for 2023 based on 194 countries was 31.6 percent. The highest value was in Suriname: 94.4 percent and the lowest value was in Egypt: 0 percent. The indicator is available from 1990 to 2023. Below is a chart for all countries where data are available.

The smallest country in the world is Vatican City, with a landmass of just **** square kilometers (0.19 square miles). Vatican City is an independent state surrounded by Rome. Vatican City is not the only small country located inside Italy. San Marino is another microstate, with a land area of ** square kilometers, making it the fifth-smallest country in the world. Many of these small nations have equally small populations, typically less than ************** inhabitants. However, the population of Singapore is almost *** million, and it is the twentieth smallest country in the world with a land area of *** square kilometers. In comparison, Jamaica is almost eight times larger than Singapore, but has half the population.

The average for 2023 based on 194 countries was 207390.9 sq. km. The highest value was in Russia: 8153120 sq. km and the lowest value was in Gibraltar: 0 sq. km. The indicator is available from 1990 to 2023. Below is a chart for all countries where data are available.

The increased world population is among the fierce problems the world is facing right now and it will get uncontrolled in the coming future if proper steps for its betterment were not taken immediately. This world has observed the fastest growth during the 20th century. In the 1950s world population was 2.7 billion, By the end of this year it will cross 8 billion. This dataset is uploaded with the assumption to use your Data Science, Machine learning, and Predictive analytics skills and answer the following questions. 1. Which countries have the highest growth rate. 2. What are the densely populated countries in the world. 3. Keeping in view all the variables in mind which countries should take serious steps to control their population.

Monaco led the ranking for countries with the highest population density in 2024, with nearly 26,000 residents per square kilometer. The Special Administrative Region of Macao came in second, followed by Singapore. The world’s second smallest country Monaco is the world’s second-smallest country, with an area of about two square kilometers and a population of only around 40,000. It is a constitutional monarchy located by the Mediterranean Sea, and while Monaco is not part of the European Union, it does participate in some EU policies. The country is perhaps most famous for the Monte Carlo casino and for hosting the Monaco Grand Prix, the world's most prestigious Formula One race. The global population Globally, the population density per square kilometer is about 60 inhabitants, and Asia is the most densely populated region in the world. The global population is increasing rapidly, so population density is only expected to increase. In 1950, for example, the global population stood at about 2.54 billion people, and it reached over eight billion during 2023.

Context The world's population has undergone remarkable growth, exceeding 7.5 billion by mid-2019 and continuing to surge beyond previous estimates. Notably, China and India stand as the two most populous countries, with China's population potentially facing a decline while India's trajectory hints at surpassing it by 2030. This significant demographic shift is just one facet of a global landscape where countries like the United States, Indonesia, Brazil, Nigeria, and others, each with populations surpassing 100 million, play pivotal roles.

The steady decrease in growth rates, though, is reshaping projections. While the world's population is expected to exceed 8 billion by 2030, growth will notably decelerate compared to previous decades. Specific countries like India, Nigeria, and several African nations will notably contribute to this growth, potentially doubling their populations before rates plateau.

• Document types: all documents types in SCOPUS are considered except Retracted, Erratum and Preprint.
• Multiple affiliations: in Higher Education sector we use fractional counting to calculate research indicators when authors have more than one institutional affiliation. In these cases we distribute the weight of a document among the institutions of the authors who present multiple affiliations.
• Multinational institutions (MUL) which cannot be attributed to any country have also been included.
• The institutions marked with an asterisk consist of a group of sub-institutions, identified by with the abbreviated name of the parent institution. The parent institutions show the results of all of their sub-institutions.
• The inclusion criterions are:
  1. The institutions had published at least 100 works included in the SCOPUS database during the last year of the selected time period.
  2. Citable documents (Article, Chapter, Conference Paper, Review and Short Survey) must represent at least 75% of total documents published by the institution.
• The SIR includes both, size-dependent and size-independent indicators; that is indicators influenced and not influenced by the size of the institutions. *The source of information used for the indicators for innovation is PATSTAT database. The sources of information used for the indicators for web visibility are Google and Semrush. Unpaywall database is used to identify Open Access documents. Altmetrics from PlumX metrics and Mendeley are used for Societal Factor. The Overton database is used to identify documents cited in policy documents.*

I rely on data from 31,754 electoral districts in the United States from 1834 until 2016 to explore how the nationalization of politics occurs within districts. I argue that in the early stages of the American democracy local concerns were more prominent in the distant districts from the capital city than in the nearby districts, and therefore the number of parties was greater in the former than in the latter. However, these differences vanished after the New Deal, when authority was centralized. Nationalization reduced the number of parties everywhere, but above all in the most distant district from Washington, D.C.
