About this quiz
Ribbia counts 197 countries: the 193 members of the United Nations plus Vatican City, Palestine, Kosovo and Taiwan. The order uses United Nations estimates for mid 2025.
- The country in first place has 237.53 million; the one in tenth has 47.44 million.
- Just outside the ten: Angola, 39.04 million.
- The buttons stay in A to Z order, so a button's position is no clue to its rank.
- After the game every button shows its place in the order.

Note on the data. Figures are the United Nations mid 2025 population estimates (World Population Prospects 2024, as carried in the Statistical Yearbook table released in November 2025), read on 3 October 2026. The order was computed from Ribbia's 197 countries; Taiwan and Vatican City have no figure in that table and neither would reach a top ten.
