*India*

The South Asia country with a population of 1.36 billion people, the second most populous country in the world (after China) has 24% of all poor people in the world.

*Nigeria*

Nigeria is the most populous country on the continent with about 190 million people. According to the World Bank Nigeria has 12% of all the poor people in the world.

*Democratic Republic of Congo*

The country has about 87 million people and is home to about 7% of all the world’s poor people.

*Ethiopia*

With a population of 112 million people, the World Bank says Ethiopia has about 4% of all the poor people in the world.

*Bangladesh*

Also in South Asia, Bangladesh is home to 3% of the world’s poor people. The country has a population of about 165 million.

The World Bank writes:

> They also happen to be the most populous countries of South Asia and Sub-Saharan Africa, the two regions that together account for 85 percent (629 million) of the world’s poor.

> However, we mustn’t lose sight of the numerous other countries with high poverty rates.

> An outcome where extreme poverty is nearly eliminated throughout the world except in one region, sub-Saharan Africa, certainly does not portray a picture of a world free of poverty.
