Supplementary notes

*Figures chosen for display purposes, the source gives estimate ranges as follows:
China: 3-4%
Europe: 8-9%
Eastern Europe: 4%

**The source gives separate figures for Europe, Eastern Europe, and Russia; it is unclear whether there is any overlap between these figures, but it is possible that they are separate, and the figure for Europe refers to Western Europe only. A separate source (Maddison, 2006) gives an urbanization rate of 12.3% for Western Europe in 1820.
