Similarly, British terms predominate in the world of snooker, English billiards and blackball, regardless of the players' nationalities. The term blackball is used in this glossary to refer to both blackball and eight-ball pool as played in the Commonwealth, as a shorthand.
Icelandâs population increased by 1% since last year, and about 12% of those living here come from abroad, Statistics Iceland reveals in a new report. According to the report, released yesterday, the current population of Iceland is 329,100, up by 1% (3,429 people, to be exact) from last year. The largest municipality remains ReykjavÃ­k, where 121,822 people live, while the smallest is Helgafellssveit, in SnÃ¦fellsnes, which is home to 53 people.
Iceland is the 108th largest country in the world by area, and as of 2016, the country is still climbing toward the 500,000 population milestone. Because its total population has not exceeded one million or even 500,000, its largest city's population does not compare to many of the megacities found in countries around the world.
