The table starts counting approximately 10,000 years before present, or around 8,000 BC, during the middle Greenlandian, about 1,700 years after the end of the Younger Dryas and 1,800 years before the 8.2-kiloyear event. From the beginning of the early modern period until the 20th century, world population has been characterized by a rapid growth.
Population growth rate (2023, Our World in Data) [1] Absolute increase in global human population per year [2] Population growth is the increase in the number of people in a population or dispersed group. The global population has grown from 1 billion in 1800 to 8.2 billion in 2025. [3]
Human population projections are attempts to extrapolate how human populations will change in the future. [2] These projections are an important input to forecasts of the population's impact on this planet and humanity's future well-being. [3] Models of population growth take trends in human development and apply projections into the future. [4]
Population of the present-day top seven most-populous countries, 1800 to 2100. Future projections are based on the 2024 UN's medium-fertility scenario. Chart created by Our World In Data in 2024. The following is a list of countries by past and projected future population. This assumes that countries stay constant in the unforeseeable future ...

English: World population chart, from 1800 to 2100 — showing both estimates and actual population counts. World population estimates from 1800 to 2100, based on: United Nations projections (in 2010) — "high" (colored red), "medium" (orange), and "low" (green) U.S. Census Bureau (historical estimates) — (colored black).
The table below shows annual population growth rate history and projections for various areas, countries, regions and sub-regions from various sources for various time periods. The right-most column shows a projection for the time period shown using the medium fertility variant. Preceding columns show actual history.
As of 2009, the average birth rate (unclear whether this is the weighted average rate per country [with each country getting a weight of 1], or the unweighted average of the entire world population) for the whole world is 19.95 per year per 1000 total population, a 0.48% decline from 2003's world birth rate of 20.43 per 1000 total population.
