Which of the following country does not lie in the top 10 most populated countries of the world (as per year 2011)?

Question

Accepted Answer

Option 3 is the correct answer because Germany's population in 2011 was significantly lower than the populations of the top 10 most populated countries in the world. According to estimates and census data from around 2011, Germany's population was approximately 80 million. The top 10 most populated countries all had populations well over 100 million at that time.

Here's why the other options are incorrect:

*   **Option 1 (Brazil):** Brazil's population in 2011 was well within the top 10 most populated countries, exceeding 190 million. Therefore, Brazil is not the correct answer.

*   **Option 2 (Indonesia):** Indonesia's population in 2011 was also within the top 10, with a population exceeding 240 million. This makes Indonesia an incorrect answer.

*   **Option 4 (Nigeria):** Nigeria's population in 2011, while lower than Brazil and Indonesia, was still high enough to be considered within the range of the top 10 most populated countries, estimated to be over 160 million. Therefore, Nigeria is not the correct answer.

In summary, only Germany's population in 2011 was definitively outside the top 10 most populated countries, making Option 3 the correct choice.
