Europe's Human Geography
Learning intentions:
- To describe the population density of countries
- To use mathematical skills accurately
- To use data to compare countries in Europe
12

The population geography of Europe
Population geography looks at where people live in the world
It is useful for comparing different countries
Some countries have lots of people living in small areas
Some countries have a few people living in massive areas
14
Left - countries of Europe / Right - Populations of European countries

Population density
Some countries are packed full of people, whilst others have plenty of space to spread out
Densely populated countries have many people in a small areas
Sparsely populated countries have few people in large areas
Most countries in Europe are packed full of people, mostly living in towns and cities
19
Areas with lots of people in a small area are densely populated / Few people in an area means it is sparsely populated

Why is population density important?
It tells us if people have enough room to live healthily.
It tells us about the type of homes people live in (e.g. detached houses or high-rise apartments).
It tells us how many services (e.g. hospitals, dentists, buses) and resources (e.g. water, food, electricity) are needed.
25
Calculating population density
To work out a country's population density we need to do some basic maths - yay!
Population density = the number of people divided by the area they live in (measured in km2)
So if 20 people live in 20m2... 20/20 = 1 person/km2

Why else is population geography useful?
We can ask people questions about their ethicity, religion and habits to compare different places
We can find patterns and differences between countries and within countries
This can help us to understand other people and cultures better
