| Abstract | ||
| In their studies of provinces, geographers aim at highlighting their special features and main characteristics according to the phenomenon to be studied. For this reason, the present research work seeks to study population regions, whether major or minor, in the Middle and Southern parts of Iraq, together with their differences. The study is restricted to 2007 only without reference to former censuses due primarily to many administrative changes and the lack of a unified system of the names given to them. The study covers thirteen governorates excluding northern governorates(Arbil, Duhouk, Sulaimaniya, Mousul and Kirkuk). A number of statistical techniques have been adopted, in addition to tables,charts, graphs and maps. The work is divided into four chapters. The first chapter deals with the dimensional and relative distribution of population; the second focuses on population dense distribution ; the third tackles the measurements of population concentration; and the fourth is about the affecting population distribution. The study has come with the following results : 1. Iraq Middle Region comes first as to the total number of Iraq population (57.6%). 2. Baghdad governorate comes first among other Iraqi governorates in the volume of population (more than 7 millions),i.e. 32.4% while Al-Muthanna governorate comes last (4%). 3. There is lack of proportion between areas and population, whether on the level of governorates, provinces, or small administrative units. 4. The density average indicator points to the fact that the two regions come within the third indicator (50-75%). Most other governorates come under the secondcategory, while Al-Muthanna gevernorate comes within the seventh category(75-100%) . | ||
