The source isn't incredibly reliable, so take these populations more as an estimate.
Egypt was under pseudo-British rule during 1900, although it was technically independent. The Transvaal Republic was captured in May 1900, so I counted it here although technically it wasn't a crown colony in 1902.
Some of the places listed in Britain are today officially towns, however since they were still over 100,000, they are counted here.
I tried to find the correct name for each territory in 1900, but let me know if I got any wrong. British India consists of modern-day India, Pakistan, Bangladesh, and Myanmar.
