I'd have guessed Indonesia had the most islands. This was quite surprising.
I was thinking Philippines
Not the most islands, but definitely the most people on islands, by a very very huge margin. Java has some absolutely insane stats. Java has more people than all of Russia, but is 133 times smaller.
Holy shit, I just looked up the numbers and that has blown my mind.
Also largest Muslim population of any country. Pretty interesting as it's nowhere near the middle east and sw Asia.
Indonesia has "only" about 12,000 which is a lot but nothing in comparison to the number in the post.
