Population of Countries trivia explores census totals, resident counts, and official population records from nations around the world. Questions may focus on a specific census year, such as Nigeria’s 2006 count, Vietnam’s 2019 census, Angola’s 2014 census, or Sri Lanka’s 2012 census.
This category suits geography fans, data enthusiasts, classroom review, and pub-quiz teams. It can test more than country recognition: players may need to distinguish a census population from a vital-statistics estimate, identify the correct year, or compare figures across Asia and Africa. Expect questions involving national statistics bureaus, census tables, and internationally documented population records.

Good questions ask for a country’s population in a named census year, identify the source of an official figure, or compare census totals between countries. The strongest questions specify whether they use a census count, resident population, or statistical estimate.
The difficulty ranges from moderate to challenging. Recognizing major population figures is approachable, but exact census totals require careful recall and attention to dates, definitions, and national statistical sources.
Nigeria’s 2006 census recorded a total population of 140,431,790 people. The figure is commonly cited as the result of Nigeria’s national population and housing census conducted in that year.
Angola’s 2014 census recorded 25,789,024 people. It was the country’s first population census since independence and provided a detailed national count of residents across Angola’s provinces.
Sri Lanka’s 2012 census recorded a total population of 20,359,439 people. The census counted residents across the island and is a key official reference for Sri Lankan population statistics.
