NationStates and its 10^15 people in 2021-08-02. Celebrating the 1,000,000,000,000,000 milestone! ♥

I know this was going to happen sooner or later, but I don't have the relevant data on which nations were which WA Category, aaaa. That will have to come later in 4-5 days.

Inspired by this post in this thread:
Guy: At the rate of gain since then, we can't be too far from 1 quadrillion population. Possibly worthy of a news post?

Yes, we have hit 1 quadrillion relatively recently, precisely at 2021-08-02! That is 1,000,000,000,000,000, or 1015, 10**15, 10^15, and whatever notation you fancy. :P

Still, the population is more easily accessible since I have access to the Daily Dumps!


The more precise data can be seen here, which I obtained from processing several, several daily data dumps!

Then of course, there is also a doubt which you might have: What about the second Drewpocalypse? Surely that must have inflated the population! Actually no! According to this post, the second one happened around 21 Apr 2020. The populations didn't come close.

Thank you for making NationStates a little fun corner of this Internet! You are amazing!
