Data sources

A pure list by country may be helpful when it comes to classifying yourself in your environment. Here once again, is a list summarized by subcontinent. Here too, it is clear that there are differences within a continent. For example, the weight of Southeast Asians and Polynesians differs slightly from the rest of the subcontinent. With regard to body size, there are noticeable variations between Southern Europeans, North Americans and Near Easterners and the rest of the respective continent.The main reasons for regional differences in body size are heredity and nutritional standards. Protein-rich food is important, and this is noticeable over generations. Although protein is considered an essential component here, a weakening of the body due to diseases and allergies also has an inhibiting effect on growth. Diseases occur more frequently as a result of weaknesses in the immune system and consume the energy that the body could put into its growth. Good health is primarily due to a good diet, but also a good health system with adequate medical care. As a result, the average body size is remarkably low, especially in poor countries of the third world.Genetic predispositions are another factor for body size. It is not individual genes that speak for or against pronounced growth, but rather the interaction of several dozen genes. Thus, the expressions of these genes are passed on in families or ethnic groups.In almost all countries of the world, the average body size has increased significantly over the last 100 years. While German men were still approximatelysmaller at the beginning of the 20th century, Spanish men increased overand Iranians over. With the women, the height of South-Korean-women rose by overThese drastic increases are unique in the history of human beings. In no phase of evolution have human beings become so much bigger as since the industrial revolution at the end of the 18th century. In the preceding 1,000 years, both men and women did not grow at all on average and before that only by 1-2 cm per 1,000 years.Strikingly often, an international comparison of penis sizes is requested here, which is now available on a separate page. Additionally an evaluation of the average cup sizes by country now exists.All data for sizes and weights are based on a summary of scientific studies evaluated and published by the NCD Risk Factor Collaboration (NCD-RisC). The more than 1,200 studies summarized there are from the analysis of the year 2020. A summary of more than 2,100 studies from the years 1985 to 2019 can also be found in the medical journal The Lancet
