List of countries by population
This is a list of countries by population. The data are from the CIA World Factbook 2003 and although not always quite up to date, at least roughly accurate. In the main list dependent or occupied areas are listed under the country which governs the area; the total population is also given, but the list is ordered according to the populations excluding dependencies and occupied areas. In the second list dependencies are positioned according to their own population.

City 911 Note The 194 countries in the list are the 191 United Nations member states, as well as Taiwan, Niue and Vatican City. Thus the UK, being one member state, is considered one country in the list. The German Wikipedia considers Niue to be a dependency of New Zealand and therefore has a list of 193 countries. The list also shows the 11 countries which have a total of 42 permanently inhabited dependencies. The total is 236 countries and permanently inhabited dependencies. They correspond with those which the CIA World Factbook lists.
