Your country odds depend on the denominator.

Sampling a newborn from this year is a different question from sampling a person alive today.

Birth weighting

The default experience is close to drawing one baby from all births in a year. India represents about 17.68% of the model total, followed by China, Nigeria and Pakistan. These are model snapshot shares and can change with source updates.

Population weighting

Switching to population changes both numerator and denominator. Large, lower-fertility countries gain relative weight, while younger high-fertility countries lose some weight. Neither mode makes all countries equally likely.
