List of Countries by Population | ||
1600 | 1700 | 1800 |
This is a list of countries by population in 1700. Estimate numbers are from the beginning of the year and exact population figures are for countries that held a census on various dates in the 1700s. The bulk of these numbers are sourced from Alexander V. Avakov's Two Thousand Years of Economic Statistics, Volume 1, pages 18 to 20, which cover population figures from the year 1700 divided into modern borders. Avakov, in turn, cites a variety of sources, mostly Angus Maddison.

The tales were true, for the Rozwi controlled 240,000 square miles [...] More than one million Africans lived under Rozwi rule.
