This video features the top 10 countries in Middle East and North Africa (MENA) by population from 1960 to 2018.
The term “total population” is coined by World Bank based on the de facto definition of population, which counts all residents regardless of legal status or citizenship. The population values shown are estimates of the midyear population of these countries.
Population estimates are usually based on national population censuses. Estimates for the years before and after the census are interpolations or extrapolations based on demographic models. Some of the important building blocks of a comprehensive demographic model include mortality rate, fertility rate and migration rate of the country.
Note that these countries/economies/territories are classified by World Bank based on their macro-geographical location and other important criteria for the purpose of statistical analysis. Therefore, the resulting classification by no means implies political independence nor represents the political or any other affiliation of the countries or entities in question.
Objectives of This Video:
1) To find out the top 10 largest countries in Middle East and North Africa by population from 1960 to 2018.
2) To visually compare the potential market size of Middle East and North African countries from the perspective of population count over the years.
Key Takeaways from This Video:
1) Egypt, the largest Middle East and North African (MENA) country by population size in 2018, makes up about 1.30% of the world total population that year.
2) The total population of the top 10 most populated countries in MENA has exploded by 300% from 1960 to 2018 while the global population has increased by just 151% over the same period.
3) As of 2018, the top 10 largest Middle East and North African nations by population together constitute 88.56% of the MENA’s total population or a significant 5.25% of the global population.
4) For the past 10 years, the top 10 most populated MENA nations have collectively grown by 1.800% annually on average, which is about 1.53 times faster than the global average of 1.177%.

Questions Worth Asking:
1) Which #MENA country do you think has achieved the highest population growth rate between 1960 and 2018?
2) Do you think that this rate of population growth is even #sustainable for the entire human race and the equally, if not more, important biosphere?
3) Can you imagine that the world population will quickly grow to over 11.2 billion at the end of the century as predicted by the United Nations Population Division? What impact could it have on your life if it were to become a reality?
Let me know what your thoughts are for each of the questions mentioned above.
