About the Population of Oceania quiz
- How many countries are in the Oceania quiz?
- 16 — every country in Oceania with the data this quiz needs. Questions are drawn fresh from that pool each round, so no two rounds repeat.
- How concentrated is the population of Oceania?
- Heavily. The three largest countries hold 92% of the region's 48,625,101 people between them.
- What counts as a typical country here?
- The median is about 171,779 people — well below the average, because a few very large countries pull the mean up.
- Where does everybody in Oceania actually live?
- In two countries. Australia and Papua New Guinea hold about 81% of Oceania's 48,625,101 people between them, while the 13 smallest countries here have under 1,500,000 people each. Several are among the least populous countries on earth, which makes the bottom of this list harder to rank than the top.
- How many countries in Oceania have a land border?
- Two. Papua New Guinea and Timor-Leste are the only countries here with a land frontier; the other 14 have no land neighbour at all. No other region is anything like as isolated, which is why position rather than adjacency is what is worth learning in Oceania.
- Which country in Oceania has the largest population?
- Australia, with roughly 27,724,744 people — the full ranking is in the table above.
- And the smallest?
- Tokelau, with about 1,411.
