Explore population, median age, life expectancy, wealth, migration, life satisfaction and internet access around the world.
The collection brings together data Hookito already uses: the capitals and facts behind the country pages, the outlines from the countries list, the paintings in Art, the album lists in Audio and the night side of the globe. The boundaries combine Eurostat GISCO and Natural Earth data. The world maps use a plain equirectangular projection, cropped at 84° north and 58° south; the continent and Europe maps are zoomed from more detailed boundaries.

Population, age, health, wealth, migration and internet access around the world.
Monaco is the most densely populated (19,212 people per km²) and Mongolia the least (2.2). Of the larger countries, Bangladesh leads with 1,162. The figure spreads people over the whole area, deserts and ice included. 12 countries without a population or area figure stay grey.

The underlying data keeps its own terms, so keep its credits too. Administrative boundaries © EuroGeographics (Eurostat GISCO), which also applies to most country outlines. Additional boundaries are from Natural Earth (public domain). Each map lists its other sources: Wikidata and GeoNames for country facts, Our World in Data for the statistics, Unicode CLDR and the IANA time zone database for the calendar and clock maps, flag-icons (MIT) for the flags, Wikimedia Commons for the paintings, NASA Earth Observatory for the night imagery. The maps are offered as finished images only; the boundary data itself isn’t available for download here.
