The Population Reference Bureau (PRB) ranking list is based on the data of the 2024 World Population Data Sheet [6] published online. The PRB [7] is a private, nonprofit organization which informs people around the world about population, health and the environment for research or academic purposes. It was founded in 1929.
The 2024 average of 17 births per 1,000 total population equates to approximately 4.3 births per second or about 260 births per minute for the world. On average, two people in the world die every second or about 121 per minute.
Crude birth rate refers to the number of births over a given period divided by the person-years lived by the population over that period. It is expressed as number of births per 1,000 population. The article lists 233 countries and territories in crude birth rate. The first list is provided by Population Reference Bureau. [1]
In humans, the natural sex ratio at birth is slightly biased towards the male sex. It is estimated to be about 1.05 [1] or 1.06 [2] or within a narrow range from 1.03 to 1.06 [3] males per female. The sex ratio for the entire world population is approximately 101 males to 100 females (2020 est.). [4]

Sex ratio by country for total population. Blue represents more males than the world average of 1.07 males/females. (2020) The human sex ratio is the comparative number of males with respect to each female in a population. This is a list of sex ratios by country or region.
As of 2009, the average birth rate (unclear whether this is the weighted average rate per country [with each country getting a weight of 1], or the unweighted average of the entire world population) for the whole world is 19.95 per year per 1000 total population, a 0.48% decline from 2003's world birth rate of 20.43 per 1000 total population.
World population pyramid from 1950 to projected in 2100 (UN, World Population Prospects 2017) A population pyramid (age structure diagram) or "age-sex pyramid" is a graphical illustration of the distribution of a population (typically that of a country or region of the world) by age groups and sex; it typically takes the shape of a pyramid when the population is growing.
