I got a question for you: It is estimated that the population of the world reached one billion for the first time in 1804. It would be another 123 years before it reached two billion in 1927, but it took only 33 years to rise by another billion people, reaching three billion in 1960. Thereafter, the global population reached four billion in 1974, five billion in 1987, six billion in 1999 and, by some estimates, seven billion in October 2011 with other estimates being in March 2012. It is projected to reach eight billion by 2024 -- 2030. According to current projections, the world's population is likely to reach around nine billion by 2035 -- 2050, with alternative scenarios ranging from a low of 7.4 billion to a high of more than 10.6 billion. Projected figures vary depending on underlying statistical assumptions and which variables are manipulated in projection calculations, especially the fertility variable. Long-range predictions to 2150 range from a population decline to 3.2 billion in the' low scenario', to' high scenarios' of 24.8 billion. One scenario predicts a massive increase to 256 billion by 2150, assuming fertility remains at 1995 levels.\n\nBased on this passage, when did the worlds population reach 1 billion?
Let's think first:

To answer this question, we should know that: It is estimated that the population of the world reached one billion for the first time in 1804.
Therefore, the answer is 1804.
