Name the 5 most populace countries in the world no cheating

[Partial]

Ready... go...

I was taken aback by one of them.

[BallHawk]

China
India
United States
Indonesia
Brazil

That's the right answer.

[MJZiggy]

China
India
United States
Indonesia
Brazil

That's the right answer.

Off the top of my head, that looks about right to me.

[Patler]

Which one surprised you?

China :wink:

[oregonpackfan]

Here is an interesting listing:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_countries_by_population

[Guiness]

China
India
United States
Indonesia
Brazil

That's the right answer.

Ok, I was close - I had Russia in there instead of Brazil...I guess I was thinking Soviet Union instead of Russia.

Geez, I'll never forget a Final Jeopardy question I saw that made my jaw drop...answer was something like "with over 800 million people, this is the world's second most populas country". The question one contestant put down? You guessed it, the USA.

[Partial]

Indonesia. My guess is anyone who knew that is lying. Do they count all those small islands as Indonesia???

[BallHawk]

Indonesia. My guess is anyone who knew that is lying. Do they count all those small islands as Indonesia???

What do you consider small? Indonesia's bulkload comes from islands like Java, Sumatra, Sulawesi, and Borneo (their part.) Yeah, there are small islands but Indonesia just has a lot of people.

The island of Java alone would be the 11th largest country in the world.

And you don't have to lie to know that.

[Guiness]

Indonesia. My guess is anyone who knew that is lying. Do they count all those small islands as Indonesia???

That's a pretty ignorant remark. Yes, I knew it.

[the_idle_threat]

I knew about Indonesis, but I was not sure about Brazil. I thought Russia might have fit in there somewhere.

[Joemailman]

Indonesia. My guess is anyone who knew that is lying. Do they count all those small islands as Indonesia???

17,508 islands to be exact. Also the world's most populous Muslim-majority country. This one didn't surprise me. Like some others, I figured Russia instead of Brazil.

[MJZiggy]

I knew about Indonesis, but I was not sure about Brazil. I thought Russia might have fit in there somewhere.

Too much tundra wilderness. It has a big land mass, but would you really want to live there? :idea: Never mind.

[Scott Campbell]

Scott Campbell's compound rated #112........and on the rise!

[the_idle_threat]

I knew about Indonesis, but I was not sure about Brazil. I thought Russia might have fit in there somewhere.

Too much tundra wilderness. It has a big land mass, but would you really want to live there? :idea: Never mind.

I thought Russia was right up there, but I think I was thinking U.S.S.R. like Guiness was. Russia comes in at #9 according to Wikipedia. Consider that Japan comes in at #10, and compare the land masses. :shock:

[texaspackerbacker]

Russia has supposedly decreased in population in the last couple of decades. Still, I question these statistics. It's hard to believe Brazil has passed it up, much less 3 others.

[Partial]

Indonesia. My guess is anyone who knew that is lying. Do they count all those small islands as Indonesia???

What do you consider small? Indonesia's bulkload comes from islands like Java, Sumatra, Sulawesi, and Borneo (their part.) Yeah, there are small islands but Indonesia just has a lot of people.

The island of Java alone would be the 11th largest country in the world.

And you don't have to lie to know that.

Dude, you are so full of shit. Honestly dude you either have ZERO life outside of wikipedia, or are just full of it.

[Partial]

Anyone wanna try 6-10?

[RashanGary]

I didn't read the thread, but I'll do my best:

China
India
Pakastan
Brazil
Mexico

[Freak Out]

Russia has supposedly decreased in population in the last couple of decades. Still, I question these statistics. It's hard to believe Brazil has passed it up, much less 3 others.

The breakup changed everything.

[texaspackerbacker]

Russia indeed has decreaed--by around 7 million from 1992-2007.

I would think Pakistan and Japan would be in 6-10. Beyond that it's hard to figure. Maybe Malaysia, Nigeria, maybe even Mexico--especially if you count citizens living outside the borders :lol: .

Fucking 3rd place in the state geography bee, Partial. Sorry for having hobbies and interests. Maybe I'll join you someday in the hobby of talking out of one's ass. I think I'm good for now, though.

And also, to answer your question.

Pakistan
Bangladesh
Nigeria
Russia
Japan

That's also the right answer.

[Harlan Huckleby]

China
India
United States
Indonesia
Brazil

That's the right answer.

i got all but brazil.

canada got to be on there somewhere, that place is fuckin huge.

[BallHawk]

China
India
United States
Indonesia
Brazil

That's the right answer.

i got all but brazil.

canada got to be on there somewhere, that place is fuckin huge.

There's so much unused land though. I can't remember the statistic exactly but it was something like 70% of Canada's population lives within 100 miles of the U.S. Border. Canada's 230th out of 241 in population density at 4.1 people per square mile. Places like Yukon, NW Territories, and Nunavut are just barren.

[Harlan Huckleby]

ya, i sorta knew that. i know some stuff.

How can you possibly be yelling at Partial and not bring up the fact that populace is a noun? And P, people do tend to know things...just because you don't doesn't mean no one does.

Thats unpossible Zig. He is the keeper of all knowledge great and small. Just ask him.

[PackerPro42]

I must admit, I did know the top 5. But that's only because I was part of a model U.N. and we had to figure all that shit out.

[Guiness]

Nice to see not all of you (as in you Americans) are as USA centric as the stereotypes that Partial thinks are the norm!

Who mentioned Pakistan? I kind of forgot about them, but I think they'd be top 10. Nigeria is indeed up there, but it's a mess trying to guess. Judging by the state of their infrastructure (yes, I've spent time there) I'd say any population estimate could easily be off by 20%...

btw I annoys me that people from the USA are generally referred to by the generic term "Americans". I happen to be American - Canada is in America.

[Deputy Nutz]

Without looking,

China
India
Pakistan
USA
Brazil

Wow, shit, bad social studies teacher I would make.

[Scott Campbell]

It'll be more official once we annex you. Say goodbye to Tim Horton's - hello 7-11.

:lol:

[GoPackGo]

When is Wisconsin going to annex the U.P. ?
Its way overdue

[HarveyWallbangers]

I knew them. I'm going to guess the largest countries are USA, Australia, China, Russia, and Canada (in no particular order).

Tim Horton's is a donut shot...i think you meant to say hello dunkin donuts.

BTW, Horton's has already started their invasion of the U.S....there are close to 350 shops already. Damn those Canucks!!

I love Tim Hortons! I was thrilled to see then in the US! Then, I tried their US coffee at several places in Michigan. Much weaker than what they sell in Canada.

They used to say that 25% of the Canadian population was within an hours drive of downtown Toronto. Of course, a Canadian driving hour covers a long distance when you are in the open road!

Most of the population of Canada is in the relatively small area between Toronto and Montreal.

Dude, I was 13 years old a month ago and now I'm 17? Off by two years each way, bud.

And, dude, I've got plenty of time to balance work and play. Contrary to popular belief, you can be socially active and intelligent.

But, of course, you already set the bar on that.

Right, you can be a normal person and learn those things randomly. To know the countries, fine, but to name drop those islands and shit makes you a super douche. I post here to get away from the rigors of life, not to prove how smart I am. Once you take your ACT we'll compare scores and we'll see whats what. For a dumb ass who google's everything I did pretty welll.

[falco]

whats wrong with being informed about the world around you???

Partial, convert some of the time that you spent posting 10,000 something times and convert it into something useful and maybe you wouldn't be proven wrong on so many subjects.

Partial, believe me, I'll whoop your ass on ACTs and I will get into a better school than you. But then again, you didn't set the bar too high, did you?

Dude, It is a very rare situation that the partial man is proven wrong. In fact, time has proven me wise on far more occasions than not. Besides, you're not even far behind. Nor does Ziggy get the criticism for having more posts than I...

Talk is cheap. Show me big talker.

[HarveyWallbangers]

I knew them. I'm going to guess the largest countries are USA, Australia, China, Russia, and Canada (in no particular order).

I was off a bit. Brazil is in the top 5 and Australia is 6th. I knew Brazil was one of the 5 most populated, but forgot that they were also one of the 5 biggest.

I grew up thinking Australia was the biggest island in the world. When I went to England, I was taught by an Englishman that our school books were wrong. In fact, he claimed, Greenland is the biggest island.
