Sooo, ich schätze, das ist jetzt eine Serie 😀
Ich habe diese kleinen Diagramme zur Visualisierung der Bevölkerung erstellt und sie gefallen mir. Anderen Leuten scheinen sie Spaß zu machen, also mache ich sie vielleicht einfach weiter 🙂
Hier unten sind die anderen, die ich bisher ebenfalls gemacht habe:

The UK looks like a witch hat
Keep these coming! It’s really interesting to see. The difference between Germany and the UK is so stark with London being so large
A very informative view on the power balance in the union
Surprisingly balanced actually
Well done! I would like to see one for Hungary, if you’d like to make it. Budapest and Pest County dominate the country (1/3 of the population lives in 7% of the area), curious to see how that turns out.

Somehow the most surprising thing to me is that Jersey gets two squares.
Always surprised my hometown of Leicester is the 10th biggest city
How about Switzerland next?
British people: why don’t you want to live in the northeast of England and in Wales?
Doesn’t this graph make my bum look big?
Do it with Italy
This reminds me of the Silksong map lol
Scotland smol
Adventurer, behold The Kingdom of Lord British
Seeing London dwarf Scotland like this, it’s an interesting perspective
Damn no one live in York,eh
Weird how there is a region of land in England called „East of England“.
Because I was thought east of England was the Atlantic ocean, Scandinavia, the Baltic
Why it got a gyatt?
It’s worth baring in mind that the urban area for Manchester/Birmingham/Leeds is much bigger than the defined city population. The real population difference between Greater London and these cities is a lot less extreme than it looks on a map like this.
Newcastle and Gateshead are essentially the same city and are thereby larger than Leicester. Boundary lines for these sorts of things are always a bit arbitrary.
I really liked these maps, where did you make them/sourced them?
Eitherway, keep them coming!
very nice.. switzerland next pls
Did you use the administrative areas or the urban areas? I would use the urban areas as they represent a truer size of the cities.
Funny how a lot of the English commenting here are saying „look, we English so big yet no representation“ as if it wasn’t the English majority vote that took the whole of the UK out of the EU, despite Scotland voting massively in favor of staying. English sentiments win national elections in the UK, that’s just a plain old boring fact of the political reality in Britain. In order to change that, you would have to dissolve „England“ into a bunch of regions and give them devolved parliaments. Then the whole UK would look like, oh I don’t know, some kind of BUNDESREPUBLIK 😉
I fucking love this maps, thank you for making them
Do italy now!
Great map, first useful and enjoyable one I’ve seen for a while, cheers.
Pls make for Turkey
We should probably change it to Leedshire at this point
Good, but Leicester is NOT that big, lol
The map is amazing yet it’s kinda sad that Cardiff and Belfast too small to even be included here.
I wish I had the time to make one for Illinois because I feel like Chicago would visually look as representative to the state as London does to Britain.
Ireland isn’t British.
Isn’t the Nottingham area way bigger in population than Leicester tho.
Edit: Leicester being around 580,000 people and Nottingham being around 825,000 people.
It seems like they applied this rule for London and outer London but no where else
Newcastle?
Pointless showing the population of „Manchester“ as the metropolitan borough, and „London“ as the region. Either show Merseyside, West Mids, etc. with the population of the urban area, or show the city of London with the 6000-ish residents it actually has
THIS TIME ITS SOUTHEAST AND EAST ENGLAND THATS ENVELOPING THE CAPITAL
Saved for later
Surprised to see Newcastle isn’t among the top 10 biggest cities.
Is like a piramid. The more North you go the smaller the population.
Neat. Haven’t seen your other ones but as a Canadian I’m kinda surprised how UK-shaped the result is. Population density is more uniform than I would have expected.
The gerrymandered entity styling itself as ‚Northern Ireland‘ is not physicall in Britain
