Largest NATO members by population — the full ranked list
The complete ranking of largest NATO members by population, in order, with what the ranking counts and how firm the figures behind it are. Free reference, no sign-up — and the guessing game that plays the same list.
All 32 members of the alliance, ordered by population. Twelve signed the original treaty in 1949 and the rest joined across eight later rounds, the most recent of them in the 2020s. The hard part is the small European members, and the single member that has no armed forces of its own at all.
