Africa is the second largest continent geographically and the second most populated continent in the world, with an area of approximately 30 million km2 (11.6 million mi2) and a population of 1.2 billion people. Africa has 54 countries fully recognized by the United Nations, two independent countries with limited or no recognition (Western Sahara and Somaliland), and several territories (mainly islands) controlled by non-African countries. For example, the Canary Islands are ruled by Spain. However, given the complex political situation in Africa, the history of colonialism and ongoing unrest in many countries, the exact number of officially recognized countries on the continent remains a matter of dispute. Africa has the youngest population of any continent with a median age of 19.7 years (compared to a global average of 30.4 years). Niger has the lowest median age in the world at 15.3 years. Africa is also the poorest continent (except Antarctica). Northern Algeria is the largest sovereign country in Africa and also one of the most populous countries with approximately 44 million inhabitants. Nigeria is the largest country with a population of over 211 million (as of 2021). Ethiopia follows with nearly 118 million, while Egypt, the Democratic Republic of the Congo, Tanzania, South Africa and Kenya have populations ranging from 92 million to 54 million. Even smaller African countries have relatively large populations. Rwanda and Burundi are relatively small in size (although both border the much larger Democratic Republic of the Congo and Tanzania), but have a population of 13.2 million and 12.2 million respectively. The small country of Lesotho, surrounded by the much larger South Africa, has a population of over 2.1 million. Seychelles - an archipelago of 115 islands in the Indian Ocean - is the smallest country in Africa with a total population of about 98,000.
