Yes they do. I suspect the OP is using order of operations incorrectly... nothing an extra set of brackets wouldn't fix.
edit: with 2 different people I am worried it does, I'll try to fix it

OP here, I doubt google calculator uses order of operations incorrectly. If you don't believe me, set the variables to random numbers(make sure the 2 "P"s are the same) copy and paste it into google, then do it again but delete the 2 "P"s

I'm a maths teacher.
Google calculator does use order of operations correctly, my only guess is that what you're typing into the calculator doesn't match your code.
You should add land area with more than x people per square mile to account for sparsely populated regions.
That will give Canada and Russia huge bonuses for owning useless tundra in northern Canada and siberia.
Yes, that's why only areas above a certain population density would be counted. By to account for sparsely populated areas, I meant to account for them being otherwise overrated. Of course, for many things, you would have to estimate.
Yes, except for modern-day civilizations who have regular censuses.
tofofnts, can you explain to me how to calculate your formula properly? I am having trouble with it.
If you give me the data I can probably help
