I was just wondering how many people that lives in the NS world. With 11,000 active nations at any given moment, lots of them with populations larger than China, it would be interesting to find out. A rough estimate would be something like 8000 billion inhabitants. That a lot! :D

~106 100 nations.
Minimum Nation Population: 5 000 000
Minimum World Population: 530 500 000 000 (530 Billion)

Estimated Average Nation Population: 300 000 000
Estimated World Population: 31 830 000 000 000 (31 Trillion, 830 Billion)

Someone could probably figure out a script to get an exact answer, however.

luckily for the bulging NS earth many nations base themselves off planet or on others.

Yes, we're doing you Earthlings a big favour here.

Which earth? Many nations have opted to inhabit Earth 2. Plus nations die and are made every day. The total population would be nearly impossible to determine, it probably changes every minute.

SalusaSecondus ran a script a while back to work this out... I think it came out as 29 trillion and something. But that was a long time ago.
