    Just so you guys know, the population of Australia is very low, but also growing incredibly fast, since colonization 240y ago the population went from around 800,000 to now 26mil.
    As someone who lives in Adelaide South Australia, the population is growing insanely fast, we live in a fairly crowded world down here, we just have a big no-no area of death (96% of land)
    It's funny a couple years back everyone celebrated 24 million, then 25 million, and we just kinda got to 26 mil and it's going too fast now ahaha.

And also i found out after a few minutes of research, that Namibia, Saudi Arabia and Libya have a arid climate almost the whole year. However Texas and California do have quite a humid climate and only a few month of arid climate.
      (Arid means that it rains less, than it could possibly be evaporated due to the temperature and humid is the other way around)

But just turn off the highway and drive a few kilometres in either direction, and there's barely anyone living out there at all.

      @@hiplsnols4394 well actually, yes it does. We canadians are used to the cold, but still would much rather live in a warmer area. If you look at another rll video, you’ll find that more than half of Canada’s population lives below the US border from (British Colombia to Manitoba/Washington to Minnesota). Many of the most populated cities in Canada, like Toronto, Montreal, Vancouver, Winnipeg, or Ottawa, to name a few, all are fairly close to the border of the US. And as you can guess, the less populated areas in Canada are up North in the territories because it’s really cold, and even in some of the places where it’s much warmer, it can get freezing, up to -40C, and I live near Winnipeg. So yes, that map is pretty accurate of where most of the Canadian population lives.

    I’m Polish and the comparision to Canada actually blows my mind. I always think of Canada as this big, influential place and just the thought that there are less people living there than in my country is so weird. Eastern Europe’s population is actually shrinking due to low birthrate and immigration so in a few years they will probably surpass us. However, the most shocking thing to me is how many people actually live in countries like Nigeria and other African states. Their population is growing fast yet their role in world’s economy is insignificant. It makes me sad how many people live there in bad conditions without the access to things that are normal go the western world, like clean water, food and medical access. I hope their birthrate will go slower as the time goes and the place will actually get better because right now, it’s not made for that many people.

    As an Australian, I can say that we are, in fact, a VERY broad country. Despite our land mass, a lot of the land is desert, with temperatures in our wet season reaching the high 40's (Celsius). Because a lot of us are white and pasty as sh*t (yes, I'm white and pasty, and I know a lot of brown/black people live here too. I'm generalizing the fact that most costal residents are predominantly white), we all live as close to the beach as we can, so that the coastal wind can keep our temperatures down :)

      No point trying to live where there's no water. No water equals no people. That's why Australia is 90% empty too. Most of Australia's population live on or near the east coast because of the Great Dividing Range - the mountain range that runs along the entire East Coast of the continent. The mountains create weather patterns so plenty of rivers flow east off the mountains down to the Pacific Ocean. The west side of the Great Divide pretty quickly becomes desert for thousands of miles, all the way to the Indian Ocean. No water, no people.
