Etwa 87 % der Weltbevölkerung leben nördlich des Äquators. Dies ist auf die größere Landfläche und das Vorhandensein dicht besiedelter Regionen wie Asien und Europa zurückzuführen.

    Im Süden, wo es mehr Ozeane und weniger bewohnbare Gebiete gibt, sind nur noch 13 % übrig.

    1. It also holds 66% of the land and that is with antartica being 1/4th of the southern hemisphere land too

      If you place the line all the way down you can title it like „Did you know 100% of the population on earth live above this line? Like and subscribe for more facts“

    3. That is too bad. We have to start building continents on the south side of the Earth.

      This isn’t map porn. It’s a single number (two can be deduced from 1)

      This only applies to the population of humans. Probably not so skewed if you consider the population of plankton.

    6. Team south!

      Things starts at the beginning of the year, ends at the end of it. „2026 season“ „2026 academic calendar“

      North be like „25/26 season“ „25/26 academic calendar“ or whatever. So weird but I get it. It’s just confusing because telling one year like „“this happened during thet 2025 season“ „In 2025 I was in X grade!“ isn’t enough to make it clear if was during „24/25“ or „25/26′

      We dont have these problems.

      I wonder where the 50/50 line of latitude is for the earth’s population …

      This has to be rage-bait.

      No way you can post this thinking this is a cool fact.

      If the land was 50/50 per hemisphere then it would be interestig.

      But no shit people live where the land is.

      And I live in the southern hemisphere, guided by the southern cross constellation

      We should put more land like in between South America and the south of Africa so more people move there

    12. This is like when your defense attorney plays your taped confession in court.

      Yet the Southern hemisphere is abundant in HIV by holding approximately 58% of all global cases.

      isn’t jakarta, the most populated city in the world now, in the southern hemisphere?

      along with other huge cities with rio de janiero, sao paulo, buenos aires, santiago, luanda, johannesburg melbourne and sydney

    15. I think using a Mercator should be an automatic ban in a ‚map porn‘ sub.

      meh, it has it cons and pros to be in a minority.

      life for example having summer sale discounts on steam while we are on the comfyness of winter.

      northern hemisphere defaultism is real tho. every seasonal advertisement or thing is said like everyone lives upnorth
