Ha! Unlike (some of) you plebs, I live in a very exclusive time zone with less than a billion people in it.
I would guess most timezones have less than a billion people. (Does China still have a single timezone?)
Now I’d be curious to see overall population based on timezone.
Edit: I found this https://distributionofthings.com/world-population-by-time-zone/
I was wondering if there are like island nations in the middle of the Atlantic or pacific that would be parts of time zones with super low populations. But I’m also guessing most such nations would want to associate with more populous neighboring time zones (for like commerce reasons, communication etc.) which is why time zones aren’t straight lines of latitude. So then that makes me wonder if for those reasons there are time zones with zero population.
Edit 2: And this https://earthscience.stackexchange.com/questions/12504/least-populated-time-zones#:~:text=2 Answers&text=There is one timezone that,the UTC-12%3A00. Seems to answer my follow up question. Seems there is a timezone with no inhabitants.
I think China is still one giant timezone, yes.
Edit: There's a relevant map men episode about that (and the islands thing) but I'm at work right now
Those were very interesting reads! Thanks for sharing.
