List of countries and dependencies by population density
This is a list of countries and dependent territories ranked by population density, measured by the number of human inhabitants per square kilometer, and also sortable by total area and by population.
The list includes sovereign states and self-governing dependent territories based upon the ISO standard ISO 3166-1. The list also includes but does not rank unrecognized but de facto independent countries. All 193 member states of the United Nations plus the Vatican City are given a rank number. The figures in the following table are based on areas including internal bodies of water such as bays, lakes, reservoirs and rivers.
The list does not include entities not on ISO 3166-1, except for states with limited recognition. Thus constituent countries that are not included on ISO 3166-1, and other entities not on ISO 3166-1 like the European Union, are not included.
Figures used in this article are mainly based on the latest censuses and official estimates or projections. Where these are unavailable, projections provided by the Population Division of the United Nations Department of Economic and Social Affairs are used.[1]

Notes
- The De Agostini Atlas Calendar listed the area of Vatican City as 0.44 km2 in its 1930 edition[2] but corrected it to 0.49 km2 in its 1945–46 edition.[3] The figure of 0.44 km2 is still widely cited by many sources despite its inaccuracy.
In 2019, the total population was 825, consisting of 453 residents and 372 nonresident citizens. For calculating the population density, only residents are considered. - Kosovo is the subject of a territorial dispute between the Republic of Kosovo and the Republic of Serbia. The Republic of Kosovo unilaterally declared independence on 17 February 2008, but Serbia continues to claim it as part of its own sovereign territory. The two governments began to normalise relations in 2013, as part of the 2013 Brussels Agreement. Kosovo is currently recognized as an independent state by 97 out of the 193 United Nations member states. In total, 112 UN member states recognized Kosovo at some point, of which 15 later withdrew their recognition.
