  • Indonesia: 68.80M in 1950, 295.51M in 2100 (projected) (4.3× higher). The latest estimate is 281.19M in 2023. It is projected to peak at 322.60M in 2058.
  • Brazil: 53.41M in 1950, 163.36M in 2100 (projected) (3.1× higher). The latest estimate is 211.14M in 2023. It is projected to peak at 219.32M in 2042.

About this chart

The UN projects Brazil to reach 163.36 million people in 2100, below its 2023 estimate of 211.14 million. At the estimated endpoint, Indonesia has 281.19 million people against 211.14 million for Brazil. In 1950, the corresponding totals were 68.80 million for Indonesia and 53.41 million for Brazil. All values are population totals, rather than population density or annual growth rates.

By 2100, the UN medium-variant projection reaches 295.51 million people for Indonesia and 163.36 million for Brazil. Estimates end in 2023; later values are conditional projections rather than observed counts. Future fertility, mortality and migration can move the eventual totals away from this path. Comparing the same projection variant keeps the two countries on a consistent basis.
