@paco_amendola@DatFollowButton Also it's not ignorant to measure the scale of modern day countries as they were back then, if anything it's more insightful, so you should consider changing your perspective here
@paco_amendola@DatFollowButton This list is from a website called population pyramid, it's not ignorant it just shows countries as they exist now, the poster didn't make this list themselves
@ALZavaldski@DatFollowButton Because this is from a website that only shows modern day countries as they exist in 2022, not as they were then, you can also view results from 2100 on this site
@HVilday I've driven through Utah before, it is so fucking empty, and there are more people in Ireland than Utah which I think is what matters more tbh
