This is absolutely true. A brief search revealed the table at http://www.popin.org/pop1998/2.htm which lists population by country. Or even http://www.census.gov/ftp/pub/ipc/www/idbnew.html which slices and dices the data lots of ways. Now the problem is simpler -- find a database of countries that lists location (centroids or ranges). Make some simplifying assumptions about population distributions, and then map the populations onto locations.
