Our World in Data, Population, 300-1700 CE

This line graph from Our World in Data displays the population of different world regions over time. While the graph shown here focuses on the population in the Americas, Africa, and Europe from 300-1700 CE, features on the site's interactive graph allow you to display estimated data from 10,000 BCE to 2100 CE in multiple regions throughout the world. By focusing on the time leading up to and around the Columbian Exchange and the regions most affected, students can study the event's impact on population and the implications population changes had for different world regions.
