Just over a week ago, the US Census Bureau released a report predicting the world’s population by 2100. It paints the same picture as many projections: that the world will be largely African.
But it offers some interesting plot twists, especially for East Africa. For example, according to projections by the United Nations Population Division, the Democratic Republic of Congo’s population is expected to reach approximately 431 million by 2100, making it the fifth most populous country globally, after India, China, Nigeria, and Pakistan.
