Some time ago the List Universe published a list of the 10 most densely population countries or territories of the world. By way of comparison, here are the 10 least densely populated countries or territories.
(note: different sources give different figures, so there may be some discrepancies)
population 3,068,742; area 1,025,520 km2; density 3.0 people/km2
The Islamic Republic of Mauritania is a country in northwest Africa, bordered by the Atlantic Ocean on the west, Senegal on the southwest, Mali on the southeast and east, Algeria on the northeast, and the Morocco-controlled Western Sahara (about which more later) on the northwest. In an area roughly the size of Ontario or Egypt there are 3 million people and not much else.
population 309,672; area 103,000 km2; density 3.0 people/km2
The Republic of Iceland is an island country in Northern Europe, located in the North Atlantic Ocean between mainland Europe and Greenland (about which more later). In an area roughly the size of Kentucky or the former East Germany there are 300,000 people and a lot of geezers (or maybe geysers).
population 449,238; area 163,820 km2; density 2.7 people/km2
The Republic of Suriname is a country in northern South America, bordered by Guyana to the west, Brazil to the south, French Guiana (about which more later) to the east and the Atlantic ocean to the north. In an area roughly the size of Wisconsin or Tunisia there are 450,000 people and possibly more languages spoken than in any comparable country.
population 21,050,000; area 7,682,300; density 2.6 people/km2
The Commonwealth of Australia is a continent island country located between the Indian and Pacific Oceans. In an area roughly the size of the contiguous 48 states of the USA or almost twice the area of the European Union, there are 21 million people and the world’s most venomous snakes. Two-thirds of the people live in 5 major cities, all located on the coast. Very few of the snakes do.
population 2,031,252; area 824,292 km2; density 2.5 people/km2
The Republic of Namibia is a country in south-west Africa, bordered by the Atlantic Ocean to the west, South Africa to the south, Botswana to the east and Angola to the north. In an area roughly the size of Ontario or Pakistan there are 2 million people and massive problem with HIV/AIDS.
population 187,056; area 90,000 km2; density 2.1 people/km2
La Region Guyane is an overseas department of France, located on the northern coast of South America, bordered by Suriname (see number 8) to the west, Brazil to the south-west and the Atlantic ocean to the north. Like the other overseas departments, French Guiana is also an overseas region of France, one of the 26 regions of France, and is an integral part of the French Republic. In an area roughly the size of Maine or Portugal, there are 187,000 people and the spaceport used by the European space agency.
population 2,646,487; area 1,564,116 km2; density 1.7 people/km2
Mongol Uls is a landlocked country between Russia and China in Central/East Asia. It is the world’s second largest landlocked country (after Kazakhstan) and the least densely populated independent country. In an area roughly the size of Quebec or Iran, there are 2.6 million people and the world’s smallest stock exchange.
population 440,000; area 266,000 km2; density 1.3 people/km2
as-Ṣaḥrā’ al-Gharbīyah is a territory in North Africa, bordered by Morocco to the north, Algeria in the northeast, Mauritania to the east and south, and the Atlantic Ocean to the west. The Kingdom of Morocco and the Polisario Front independence movement (and government of the Sahrawi Arab Democratic Republic) dispute control of the territory. In an area roughly the size of Colorado or New Zealand there are 440,000 people, a lot of sand and not much water.
population 3,060; area 12,173 km2; density 0.25 people/km2
The Falkland Islands are a group of two main islands and 776 smaller islands in the South Atlantic Ocean, 480 km from the coast of Argentina. The islands are a self-governing Overseas Territory of the United Kingdom, but have been the subject of a claim to sovereignty by Argentina since the re-establishment of British rule in 1833. In an area roughly the size of Connecticut or Northern Ireland there are 3,000 people and 583,000 sheep.
population 56,916; area 2,175,600 km2; density 0.026 people/km2
Grønland / Kalaallit Nunaat is an ice-covered island between the Arctic and Atlantic Oceans, lying to the north-east of Canada. It is the world’s largest island and is a self-governing province of Denmark. Though geographically a part of North America, Greenland is politically and historically associated with Europe, specifically Iceland, Norway, and Denmark. In an area larger than Alaska and roughly the size of Saudi Arabia there are 57,000 people and 2.85 million km3 of ice.

I was told by someone a long time ago that Greenland was named Greenland by Vikings in hopes of luring people who would expect a beautiful and lush place to live in order to easily attack, rob and kill them. Makes sense, but I couldn’t verify that explanation. Interesting list.
Yet again, Australians getting worked up over nothing.
Silly, silly.
Ginger 122,
Well maybe if you hadn’t made the stupid comment(1)in the first place, then this discussion wouldn’t have turned the way it has, and yes we f*&^%ing Aussie’s do get worked up.
Ginger: Am I right in assuming from your 64 that you are a New Zealander? Am I right in assuming therefore that your 1 was, in fact, as tongue-in-cheek as my comments about New Zealand have been?
Or did you mean it?
If Australia is “good for nothing”, it is for two reasons: 1) soil and 2) water, neither of which is the fault of the people living on it. In fact Australia farms land that would be considered marginal or desert anywhere else in the world.
Jono 114: New Zealand’s circumstances were different in two ways: Australia is so large that the aborigines could be rounded up, sent away out of sight and marginalised, so that for many years the average “Aussie” didn’t have anything to do, and didn’t have to have anything to do, with the average aborigine. New Zealand is small enough that there’s nowhere to do that, so Maori and pakeha lived and worked, maybe not together, but certainly in closer proximity. Secondly, there was a treaty in New Zealand, which gave the Maori certain rights, or legal recognition.
Thank you Juliet. Nice list.
just saw pakistan mentioned
Anyways great list though i didnt know falklands was a nation !
Ali Hayat, (126),
The status of the Falklands and a number of other places listed is noted in post 10, q.v.
I live in Greenland at the moment, and I LOVE it here. The capital, Nuuk, is actually the least populated capital in the world. Counting around 17,000 persons.
The much colourfull houses, is as said above, a nice break in the not so colourfull environment. BTW, the gvnt is not housing people. They buy their houses like most places in the world. They do have free dentists, doctors and phychiatrists though. And if Obama can do that for the americans, I belive that it will be for the best. Just my humble oppinion!!!
I think that the big shadow you can see on Google Earth is one of those breaks in the ice, the the scientist are afraid of, ’cause of that wholoe global warming thing:-)
Australia isnt a continant, its a common mis-conception
its actually accepted as the largest land mass of the AUSTRALASIAN continant, which includes several islands including New Zealand
From today’s Sydney Morning Herald:
“Aussie backpackers are populating the UK by stealth, donating sperm to earn money to fund their travels.”
(extreme tongue in cheek)In other words, Aussie backpackers are professional *****ers?
astraya – Bugger you, you just let out the secret, now how am i going to fund myself when i visit the UK, there will be lines out the front of the donation centers.
Ginger – i see from you not responding you must have crawled back into your little cave.
Maelstrom: Thank you. Did you also know that the British Isles are part of Europe, Madagascar is part of Africa and Greenland is part of America?
CRSN: I backpacked to England as an amateur. I didn’t know professionalism was an option.
atraya:
“Secondly, there was a treaty in New Zealand, which gave the Maori certain rights, or legal recognition”
Do you maybe think your country could of had such a treaty too? Unfortunately for yourself a lot of what you’ve just written is inherently racist. It’s disgusting to me. Many other comments as well, let me round a few up.
“Redfurn and Cronulla: these areas just out of Sydney are low socio-economic suburbs full of refugies and our native Aboriginals and a couple of white aussies”
Inherent racism obvious here.
“Australia has had to deal with the Aboriginal culture for a long time, and they want more rights than the “white fellas” which we have given them,”
Hmm, maybe you’ve “had to deal with their culture” because they OWNED the country before the colonists and their kin came to steal it!
“New Zealand’s circumstances were different in two ways: Australia is so large that the aborigines could be rounded up, sent away out of sight and marginalised, so that for many years the average “Aussie” didn’t have anything to do, and didn’t have to have anything to do, with the average aborigine.”
Oh, so since they were institutionalized it’s alright to treat the minorities like *****? Great justification.
It’s painfully obvious to many people (mainly more integrated societies such as the United Kingdom and much of metropolitan US) that this racism is quite evident when they meet Aussies. It’s not as bad as it was, and it’s not everyone, there are worse countries (South Africa) but it’s not good enough regardless.
Jono, aw shucks, lighten up. Aussies aren’t rascist, they just hate everyone equally
So Jono, where do you come from? i’d like to hang some ***** on your countries treatment of their natives.
Mate, you dont understand anything about australia obviously.
Read a bit of our early history, i despise the people who settled australia in their treatment of our natives, but, at the same time, after the settlers realized the error of what they’d done (and that took until the early 70′s) they worked with the native community to help them to be integrated in to society and become more equal.
I guess us aussies on the site have taken everyone else’s negative comment the wrong way and all we have done (at the same time maybe sounding racist) is try to defend our country.
I agree that it was deplorable the way that the natives were treated, but after so many years of government funding and seeing how it has been used by “some” of the native community, you become disheartened in the fact that the more money and help that we try to give them, the more it sets them back.
it is up to the native communities to start “wanting” to integrate themselves in to the community and to add to the workforce and economy, unfortunately, until then, we all probably will sound racist because we feel as though we’re getting ripped off.
this is the last I will say on this matter Jono, but i would like you o look up the name EDDIE MARBO, and to see what he did for his people, then look up HALLS CREEK and tell me then that you think we are racist, could you justify raping your own daughter? Didn’t think so.
CRSN posted that while I was preparing my reply off-line.
BTW, it’s spelled ‘Mabo’.
atraya:
It helps if you get my screen name correct.
“Secondly, there was a treaty in New Zealand, which gave the Maori certain rights, or legal recognition”
Do you maybe think your country could of had such a treaty too?
I read in book that I no longer own, or no longer have access to if I do, that Governor Phillip had orders to negotiate with the local leaders and come to some sort of formal or informal agreement. Unfortunately, he (a child of his time and place) looked at the tribal/semi-nomadic aborigines and couldn’t see anything that resembled his understanding of leadership, so didn’t. Personally, he treated the aborigines with more kindness and fairness than many others of his time would have.
Unfortunately for yourself a lot of what you’ve just written is inherently racist. It’s disgusting to me. Many other comments as well, let me round a few up.
What? How? A lot of what you have quoted below was written by other(s).
“Redfurn and Cronulla: these areas just out of Sydney are low socio-economic suburbs full of refugies and our native Aboriginals and a couple of white aussies”
Inherent racism obvious here.
“Australia has had to deal with the Aboriginal culture for a long time, and they want more rights than the “white fellas” which we have given them,”
Hmm, maybe you’ve “had to deal with their culture” because they OWNED the country before the colonists and their kin came to steal it!
I didn’t write any of this, so I’m not going to address it.
“New Zealand’s circumstances were different in two ways: Australia is so large that the aborigines could be rounded up, sent away out of sight and marginalised, so that for many years the average “Aussie” didn’t have anything to do, and didn’t have to have anything to do, with the average aborigine.”
Oh, so since they were institutionalized it’s alright to treat the minorities like *****? Great justification.
Whoa! Are we on the same planet here? Point to anything in my statement that would lead you to such an inference. You can’t. I didn’t say so. I didn’t say anything that would lead a reasonable reader to infer so. I was stating an historical fact. It happened. It is one of the biggest blots on Australia’s history. I venture to suggest that most modern-day (white) Australians would say the same. Or at least most of the modern-day (white) Australians I know.
It is never alright to treat the minorities like *****. Point to anything I said that suggests that a) as a general proposition or b) my personal belief.
It’s painfully obvious to many people (mainly more integrated societies such as the United Kingdom and much of metropolitan US) that this racism is quite evident when they meet Aussies. It’s not as bad as it was, and it’s not everyone, there are worse countries (South Africa) but it’s not good enough regardless.
Are we talking about the United Kingdom of Brixton and Toxteth and the metropolitan US of the Rodney King riots and the New Orleans floods here? Australia’s got its problems. Of course it has. Only a starry-eyed idealist would say otherwise. At least we can agree on “It’s not as bad as it was, and it’s not everyone”.
I don’t want this to degenerate into blanket accusations of “racism”. If I have said anything objectionable, point to it. If someone else has, point to him/her.
Gosh, aren’t those houses in Greenland cute? And what about that rainforest in Suriname?
krchuk: “Aussies aren’t rascist, they just hate everyone equally”
Except me.
The Greenland houses look like Skittles or Smarties

OMG Malestrom. I very nearly wet my pants reading your comment!
Some bad news for you. Australia is a continent and Asia is a whole other different continent. Despite our proximity to New Zealand, that too, is a whole other country. Different governments. Different Prime Ministers. You need a passport to go anywhere outside Australia.
Perhaps it’s better you stop hanging out with the people who ‘accept’ anything else.
CRSN:
“it is up to the native communities to start “wanting” to integrate themselves in to the community and to add to the workforce and economy, unfortunately, until then, we all probably will sound racist because we feel as though we’re getting ripped off”
You’re extremely ignorant to think that Aborigines need to define themselves as Western to integrate into society. Integration works from all parties, not just one. Maybe their culture is valid and both parties can adapt to create a unified Australia. Anyway, I don’t really care. That’s not happening and it won’t for a long while.
This is like trying to talk the face off a donkey.
astraya:
“Whoa! Are we on the same planet here? Point to anything in my statement that would lead you to such an inference.”
Don’t play the fool with me. You know well right that what you wrote inferred that the initial circumstances were different between our two countries, and as a result the natives from New Zealand were treated better only because of the circumstances.
“New Zealand is small enough that there’s nowhere to do that [institutionalize them]”
Actually, to be on-topic, New Zealand only has a population density of 15/km^2 (currently). That’s right around the 85th percentile. So actually, we did have the room to perform such a thing.
Check a dictionary for the meaning of the word “inferred”. I “inferred” nothing. I didn’t even “imply” anything. There’s a difference between the two words. You said “New Zealand has had exactly the same set of circumstance as Australia”. This is clearly wrong, for at least the two reasons I gave (and possibly more). I stated a fact: Australian aborigines could be (and were) rounded up and sent away. Fact. You inferred totally your own meaning, totally erroneously, from that statement. As I said before, point to anything in my statement that would lead you to such an inference. You certainly haven’t in your immediately preceding comment. You have simply added a second set of inferences to your first set of inferences, none of which was stated, or is inherent, in my original statement.
Now look ye here,
The best man at my my wedding was an Aussie doctor. For over a year we shared a flat in Chiswick owned by a yuppie Chinese Trinidadian. We had the world’s worse milkman, called Strad (Stradivarius for long, name derived from Mister Adams – work it out). Thanks to him, (the dr), apart from meeting my first (Brit) wife, I was forced to confront this great load of antipodean *****ers who thuswise fund their trips to Earl’s Court. (Distaff side excepted. Lateral question: So how do the tarts do it? Fund their backpacking, I mean. Blow job the guys and nick the sperm? That sounds typically Oz.). They were the maddest crew of bastards I’ve ever met. But racist? Anti abo? That’s a load of utter cobbers, sorry cobblers. They were some of the more open-minded folks I’ve ever met.
Aw *****, I clean forgot, they just couldn’t stand Brits, they hated us …
Yuppie Chinese Trinidadians are racist though.
Adds long line of smiley jobs.
astraya- Yeah. Pretty much from just being a New Zealander I like to insult Australians.
CRSN- My non-responding results from having a life and not sitting at a computer reading and responding to comments all day long.
astraya:
“There’s a difference between the two words.”
That there is. Could of sworn you’d written “imply” though. :p
“I stated a fact: Australian aborigines could be (and were) rounded up and sent away.”
How is that even relevent? Maoris could of been rounded up, but they weren’t. The only difference between the two nations being that your country did round them up. I don’t even see the relevence you’re trying to apply. Are you saying because they were rounded up, the average Joe public didn’t know about Aborigines and treated them badly as a result? Because that’s not a justification.
Lastly, I have some evidence which is irrefutable although slightly irrelevant. New Zealand has more equality of the *****es in the workplace, we’re only behind Scandinavia (rank 5), “Australia is ranked 21st place this year, behind many poorer countries, such as the Philippines, Mozambique and Lesotho”.
http://www.nzherald.co.nz/nz/news/article.cfm?c_id=1&objectid=10543185
Anyway. I realize the only way I’m going to stop arguing is that if you admit your country, on average, is more racist than mine. That won’t happen, you won’t bite that bullet. I won’t concede my argument either, not gonna happen.
What I will concede though, is that I have wasted my time in this argument that serves nothing more than arguing for the sake of arguing. I welcome you to agree with me on that.
Jono (141)
Don’t play the fool with me. You know well right that what you wrote inferred that the initial circumstances were different between our two countries, and as a result the natives from New Zealand were treated better only because of the circumstances.
That would be because the circumstances of European settlement in the two countries were TOTALLY different. As were the cultural levels of the two indigenous races. You really should learn some of your own history.
Cheers
Lee
Jono: Once again you have failed to answer my question. The “argument” could have been over long ago if you had. It has continued because you haven’t.
I am not going to admit that Australia is, on average, more racist than New Zealand, because I have no in-depth knowledge of life in New Zealand.
atraya:
Look, are you seriously telling me you don’t even understand what you wrote?
k1w1taxi:
They weren’t totally different. Totally different is the settling of Europeans into America and the settling of Europeans into New Zealand. New Zealand and Australia are very similar, both being antipodes of the UK, they both had large groups of natives, they both featured rich immigrants following the trade industries, missionaries, whalers, miners, etc.
And what do you mean “As were the cultural levels of the two indigenous races.” What you’re saying is that one of the two cultures has less culture than the other. Way to be ignorant.
Seriously, I’m done playing playground wars with this topic. Maybe one day there will be a surgical procedure to remove the wool from your eyes.
despite the title, you haven’t clearly defined what type of land mass it takes to make this list seeing as you’ve included territories of other countries as well as whole countries. if territories can make the list then Antarctica should be #1. dozens countries around the world have staked territorial claims to the continent, but have signed an international treaty to keep the land for scientific research only. it is 5th largest continent, w/ a population that ranges from 1,000 in winter to 4,000 in the summer. that’s a whole lot less than greenland.
btw, i think everyone has heard enough about the whole greenland/iceland name thing so quit posting about it and acting like it’s something new. both islands contain plants and ice. hell, antarctica has some green stuff growing on it too in a few places.
Jono (148)
Your kidding me right?
You have only failed to list the major immigrant group into Australia, and the one that had far more effect on it’s attitude to the Aboriginal. Forget all the small groups and late comers you mention, Australia was founded as a Penal Colony. New Zealand was settled by a private company as a place for Settlers. Hence a very fundamental difference in attitude between the two groups.
Re the cultural thing. I agree not the best word for what I meant, I just couldn’t put my mind on the precise term I needed. What I was trying to get across was that the Maori were more *advanced* in their level of overall development. I think you will find that they were largely more disposed towards favourable contact with the newcomers, in large part due to their desire to get their hands on a lot of the new technology the British brought with them – especially muskets. The aboriginals were by and large less keen on having anything to do with the newcomers.
Cheers
Lee
Jono: I know exactly what I wrote. You seem to be struggling with it, though.
144. Ginger
“CRSN- My non-responding results from having a life and not sitting at a computer reading and responding to comments all day long.”
That’s funny, considering i’ve been out in Kalgoolie for the last 3 days, and theres not exactly a lot of computers out there.
Anyway, after 3 days of not being in this comment thread and seeing Jono still kicking up dust over ***** he isnt familiar with, i think the best way to approach all this stuff is to agree to disagree.
obviously us aussies have a different slant on our countries issues because we are Citizens of Australia, and everyone else knows better and they think they should run the country, i’ll tell you this Ginger and Jono, go for it, enjoy it, i aint gonna stop you.
Who is the compiler trying to kid???
Comments re Australia “continent island (crossed out) country” – - – it IS an Island continent and we are proud of that!
and
“…all located on the coast. Very few of the snakes do.”
Bull*****!
You can get black snakes, brown snakes, red-bellied black snakes and tiger snakes IN Melbourne itself -and they are ALL in the top 12 deadly snakes on the planet (the Tiger is number two!)
You can get King Browns in Perth (K.B’s are the third deadliest in the world), Tiger Snakes in Hobart and Launceston as well as Taipan’s (the undisputedly deadliest snake in the world) in the cities of Townsville, Cairns and Rockhampton!
Nice list but don’t be flippant – you will only come unstuck.
BTW ANY list compiling the 10 Deadliest Snakes in the World (or anybody considering compiling one) – a short note to consider – - – they all live in Australia!
Iceland and Suriname look gorgeous.
Jessi – don’t they though – - – - Iceland, particularly was a surprise – the first actual photo I think I’ve ever seen of the country!
From today’s Sydney Morning Herald, written not by a starry-eyed Australian but by an Englishman who has on occasion been scathing about Australia, Australians, the Australian cricket team and various members of it:
http://www.smh.com.au/news/sport/cricket/bpeter-roebuckb/2008/11/19/1226770542639.html
Muttley: don’t be flippant – you will only come unstuck or it might return to bite me!
Please develop enough intelligence to understand that “very few” does not mean “none”. BTW I have lived in one of those places your mentioned, and did not see a snake in the wild in the time that I was there.
Muttley: humbled by your declarations of peace on other lists, may I offer my apologies here? I’d already had this conversation with someone else further back, and over-reacted on reading yours. Yes, there are snakes in the urban areas. Sort of yes, they are rarer than in the country areas.
I live in a rural area of the U.S. south,we got Cottonmouths & Copperheads that`s our only posionous snakes. Also they pretty much don`t live in the city. P.S. they get shot on sight .
Beautiful pictures very nice list. Peace.
bigski,
“P.S. they get shot on sight.”
Who’d be a snake? Poor beasts.
Takes tongue out of cheek. I believe the natural equilibrium has been upset following serious attempts in Asia to reduce the snake population for the benefit of field workers in particular, resulting in plagues of rodents.
Oh for goodness sake. The comments on this list are absolutely ridiculous.
Yes, I am Australian and I expected Australia to be on this list.
However, I am also Filipino and can safely say that to generalise and say that we’re all racist is disgusting. Our country happens to thrive upon multiculturalism. Yes, we understand that the race riots, stats and the current ill-treatment of the indigenous peoples remains deplorable – but that isn’t to say we’re all like that.
Sheesh, get a grip people.
And Ginger, but we are good for things – you’re just too ignorant to know about them.
162. deeh: There will always be people like Ginger. Many of them.
Best to ignore them places like this, they have a difficult time learning, not being very bright (usually part of the double-digit crowd).
I know there are special schools set up for them, but probably their parents were the same, and didn’t notice anything wrong. Schools are over-crowded and people just get shoved from one grade to the next, as long as they don’t call undue attention to themselves.
Ginger is probably one who fell through the cracks. Not her fault. The system failed her. Sure, she’s ignorant, maybe stupid as well, I don’t have proof of that, though. I’m sad for her. Maybe she could have been helped. We’ll never know.
I was trying to lighten the mood of previous posters with an absurb statement.
bigski,
Know watcha mean. It’s an uphill task, amigo. No names (not even LV names) no pack drill, but maybe some of ‘em (the heavies) need shooting instead of the poor wee snakeypoos! Hahahaha!
@maximuz04
Suriname is an independent country.
you missed one. Maldives has a population of 350,000
aka 10 places a loner would love to live
Hmm, I think that maybe the name Iceland is just a translation gone wrong, not a description of the country. In icelandish (?) the name for Iceland is Lýðveldið Ísland, Ísland problably meaning island as many of the early settlers of Iceland were of Celtic origin. but in Danish, island means “land of ice”, so I’m guessing that the translation just got screwed up along the way…
just mu guess…
WOW I would never want to live in any of these countries YAY
hahaha yeah the reason Australia is so empty is coz you can’t live anywhere except the coast.
I live in Sydney where the average summer day is about… 35degrees or something but my friends live in the outback, their average summer day is 50degrees.
yeah and we used to get red belly black snakes and carpet snakes in my house!
gosh gey over snakes!! lot more dangerous things in australia
Australia is a *****ing desert. You can only live on the coast, unless you want to die. Even then, it’s hot. The sun smells like burning flesh.
Gotta love Australia. =P
Ginger loves his sheep because he is a New Zealander.
Yay! You should do a post on the most densly populated countries!
If it was reasoned why its Least Densely Populated Nations, it’d b a great help in understand……
Great list, Astraya. I just want to live anywhere, where to go visit a neighbour I’d have to take a ten minute drive…
lol, several of these are not nations
nawww I’m sure New Zealand fits somewhere on there!!!
hey
