I took the historical Viennese population stats — published on the Vienna Wikipedia entry — and sorted the different ‘populations’ by size, not by year.

Here’s the list sorted by population size:

231,900
338,700
446,400
724,800
1,539,848
1,531,346
1,550,123
1,616,125
1,619,885
1,627,566
1,631,082
1,770,938
1,769,137
1,918,720
1,935,881
2,083,630

Now please try to assign the following years to the different ‘populations’…

1800
1830
1850
1880
1900
1910
1923
1934
1939
1951
1961
1971
1981
1991
2001
2005

Good luck.
