Average elevations by country...
USA: 2,500'
China: 6,000'
India: 525'
Russia: 2,000'
South Africa: 3,400'
Indonesia: 1,200'
Brazil: 1,000'
Pakistan: 3,000'
Nigeria: 1,200'
Mexico: 3,600'
Japan: 1,400'
Phillipines: 1,400'
Ethiopia: 4,300'
That's over 58% of the world population by country living at an average of 2,400 as established by word population by country, and average elevation of those countries.
I didn't try to say anything. I said it.
How does it follow that just because the average elevation of a country is x, that y of the population lives at the average?
