Summary

Description
English: Updated graphic showing the estimated world population from 1800 to 2010.

All data was sourced from the United Nations. Projected population after 2015 are the UN's three projection types, "low," "medium," and "high" population growth.

UN estimated data for 1800-1950 are from https://www.census.gov/population/international/data/worldpop/table_history.php . I used the UN column for the numbers.

Remaining data are UN's 2015 estimates ( https://esa.un.org/unpd/wpp/ )
