Congo Brazzaville Population

The population of Congo Brazzaville, officially known as the Republic of the Congo, has experienced steady growth over the past several decades. In the early 2000s, the country’s population was around 3 million, but by 2024, it is estimated to have surpassed 5.8 million people. This growth is driven by a relatively high birth rate, despite challenges such as political instability, economic fluctuations, and periods of conflict. Urbanization is also a significant factor, with a large proportion of the population residing in the capital, Brazzaville, and other major cities. The population growth presents both opportunities and challenges for the country, including the need for improved infrastructure, education, and healthcare services to support a young and rapidly expanding populace.
