Western Australia

Correct Answer:

Indonesia

Explanation:

Among the options given, Indonesia is the most densely populated region. It is a highly populated island nation with major urban centers like Jakarta, and its islands (especially Java) have extremely high population density.

The other regions:

  • Greenland – Very sparsely populated due to icy terrain and harsh climate.

  • Siberia – Also sparsely populated because of its cold climate and vast, remote landscapes.

  • Western Australia – Has low population density, with most people concentrated in a few coastal cities.
