Best Answer

The most obvious reason why there are more people in the Eastern hemisphere than the Western is that the continents of the Eastern hemisphere, Africa, Asia, and Europe, are simply larger, in aggregate, than the two continents of the Western Hemisphere, North and South America. At a rough estimate there is twice as much sheer land mass in the east than in the west. Even aside from that, populations are denser in the east. That is more or less an accident of history. Different cultures develop in different ways.
