Regionally, Khatlon was the most densely populated area, home to roughly 3.879 million residents. Sughd region followed with approximately 3.015 million. The districts of republican subordination recorded a combined population of around 2.299 million, while the capital Dushanbe accounted for about 1.292 million.
