Bantu population (EN)
DEMOGRAPHY
As of my last update in January 2022, there isn't a precise number for the total Bantu population worldwide. The Bantu people are spread across several countries in Africa, primarily in the southern and central regions of the continent. Estimates suggest that the Bantu ethnic group is one of the largest in Africa, with populations in the hundreds of millions.
Tanzania
Democratic Republic of Congo (DCR)
Kenya
Uganda
Angola
Zambia
Mozambique
Zimbabwe
Malawi
South Africa
Namibia
Botswana
Rwanda
Burundi
Cameroon
Gabon
Equatorial Guinea
Republic of Congo (Congo-Brazzaville)
Central African Republic (CAR)
São Tomé and Príncipe
This list is not exhaustive, as Bantu peoples have historically migrated and settled in various parts of Africa, contributing to the cultural and linguistic diversity of the continent.
