Well according to Googke
The Indian sub continent is around 1.45 billion.
The Americas is around 1.02 billion
Europe 744 million.

So instagram seems about right!

Large parts shown in blue are virtually nil population in the boonies. Having been to the sub continent five times now i always found it amazing that wherever you go there are people around, and the cities have to be experienced to be believed.

And large elements of Scotland reside in Canada too.

Not heard of The Clearances? Plus emigration following WW2 etc? 14% of Canada are of Scottish descent.

I noticed that China is not in red?

If you dont believe it then do your own research. Thats what I did and the figures I quoted came from Google. I asked what the populations were of

1. The Americas.
2. The Indian sub continent
3. Europe.

From those figures it appears that, whilst appearing to be crazy, the Instagram information is about right. As has been pointed out, huge swathes of the blue area are virtually uninhabited whilst the Indian sub continent is very densely populated and Europe isn't that far behind now.

Why should it be as it’s not part of the question/comparison. Chinas large land mass wouldn’t generate such a noticeable difference between the America’s and sub continent.

It would have been an interesting comparison considering that China is our "best friend" as proved recently. LOL!

What; how does China compare in its number of spies compared to the Americas. Probably no contest. 😂

Who mentioned spies? How can they be spies when they are our best friends?
