Half the world's population lives on 11% of the land mass?

I tried living in the red zone, but I found it a little crowded for my taste.

Why is the world’s population so unbalanced?

This map dramatically illustrates how the world's population is distributed, revealing an extreme imbalance where just 11% of the planet's landmass houses approximately 4 billion inhabitants, matching the population of the remaining 89% of the world. This dense area encompasses much of South, East, and Southeast Asia.

This phenomenon isn't new; regions like China and the Indian subcontinent have historically accounted for a significant percentage of the global population for millennia. The primary reason for this density boils down to favorable geography: fertile river valleys (such as the Ganges and Yellow), flat terrain, warm climates, and rich soils enabled surplus agriculture to thrive thousands of years ago, sparking major civilizations and sustaining growth.

The high concentration persists today, driven by rapid urbanization and economic booms, which draw migrants to megacities like Delhi and Shanghai.
