Verdens landes befolkningsstørrelser

Dette er en liste med Verdens landes befolkningsstørrelser. Den omfatter suveræne stater, beboede afhængige territorier og i nogle tilfælde konstituerende lande i suveræne stater, hvor inklusion i listen primært er baseret på ISO-standarden ISO 3166-1. For eksempel betragtes Storbritannien som en enkelt enhed, mens konstituerende lande i Kongeriget Nederlandene betragtes separat. Derudover omfatter denne liste bestemte stater med begrænset anerkendelse, der ikke findes i ISO 3166-1.

Tal, der anvendes i denne tabel, er baseret på de mest ajourførte skøn eller prognoser fra den nationale folketællingsmyndighed, hvor de er tilgængelige, og er normalt afrundet.

Hvis opdaterede nationale data ikke er tilgængelige, er talene baseret på skøn eller prognoser for 2022 fra Population Division of the United Nations Department of Economic and Social Affairs.

Fordi de samlede tal ikke indsamles på samme tid i alle lande eller på samme nøjagtighedsniveau, kan de resulterende numeriske sammenligninger skabe vildledende konklusioner. Derudover kan tilføjelsen af tal fra alle lande ikke svare til verdens total.

Områder, der udgør integrerende dele af suveræne stater, såsom landene i Storbritannien, regnes som en del af de pågældende suveræne stater. Der tælles ikke andre enheder, såsom EU, som ikke er suveræne stater, og uafhængige territorier, der ikke har permanente befolkninger, som forskellige landes krav om Antarktis.

Bemærk: Der tildeles et nummereret rang til de 193 medlemsstater i FN, samt to observatørstater til FN's Generalforsamling. Afhængige territorier og konstituerende lande, der er dele af suveræne stater, tildeles ikke et nummereret rang. Derudover medtages suveræne stater med begrænset anerkendelse, men de tildeles ikke et nummereret rang.

Listen er opdateret pr. 1. juni 2024.

Flag of Europe.svg
The Flag of Europe is the flag and emblem of the European Union (EU) and Council of Europe (CoE). It consists of a circle of 12 golden (yellow) stars on a blue background. It was created in 1955 by the CoE and adopted by the EU, then the European Communities, in the 1980s.

The CoE and EU are distinct in membership and nature. The CoE is a 47-member international organisation dealing with human rights and rule of law, while the EU is a quasi-federal union of 27 states focused on economic integration and political cooperation. Today, the flag is mostly associated with the latter.

It was the intention of the CoE that the flag should come to represent Europe as a whole, and since its adoption the membership of the CoE covers nearly the entire continent. This is why the EU adopted the same flag. The flag has been used to represent Europe in sporting events and as a pro-democracy banner outside the Union.

(Its symbol is a sky blue flag, decorated with a yellow star in the upper left corner and crossed in the diagonal by a red strip with thin yellow borders) It seems to be identical, except for a lighter field hue, to the 1966–1971 flag.

Flag of Iran.svg
Flag of Iran. The tricolor flag was introduced in 1906, but after the Islamic Revolution of 1979 the Arabic words 'Allahu akbar' ('God is great'), written in the Kufic script of the Qur'an and repeated 22 times, were added to the red and green strips where they border the white central strip and in the middle is the emblem of Iran (which is a stylized Persian alphabet of the Arabic word Allah ("God")).
The official ISIRI standard (translation at FotW) gives two slightly different methods of construction for the flag: a compass-and-straightedge construction used for File:Flag of Iran (official).svg, and a "simplified" construction sheet with rational numbers used for this file.

Flag of Jamaica. “The sunshine, the land is green, and the people are strong and bold” is the symbolism of the colours of the flag. GOLD represents the natural wealth and beauty of sunlight; GREEN represents hope and agricultural resources; BLACK represents the strength and creativity of the people. The original symbolism, however, was "Hardships there are, but the land is green, and the sun shineth", where BLACK represented the hardships being faced.
