World Population 2005 – 2013
To reach the total figure of countries with over
1.25 million inhabitants, we had to calculate the numbers of 1.25 million families;
countries with 100,000 families or less had to be excluded.
The results from both sources can be combined by
specifying country sizes as having a threshold of 10,000 families. Thus, the
top 10 countries are:
Japan (1,023,737 families)
China (1,025,313 families)
Russia (953,865 families)
India (960,000 families)
United States (956,209 families)

Greece (925,334 families)
France (903,959 families)
Spain (895,747 families)
South Korea (863,945 families)

For India, it is 15 million (over 20% of the total population).
This is not a new problem. The rise in fertility of
