Europe vs Nigeria Births & Overall Population

The map above shows the number of births per year in Nigeria vs Europe in 2023 according to Our World In Data.

In that year Europe (including all of Russia) recorded 6.3 million births vs Nigeria with 7.5 million.

Below we look at births and overall population trends from 1900 to 2100. (Note data up to 2023 is historically accurate, while that from 2024 to 2100 is the UN’s medium population estimate).
