Yes.

Okay, I left out city-states like Singapore, as well as places like
Monaco and Vatican City, as well as very small islands like Nauru,
Bermuda, Malta, Maldives, and Bahrain.

Of "real" countries, Bangladesh is the most densely populated, and
Taiwan is second.

Macau isn't a country, nor is Hong Kong. Both are part of China (of
course China claims that Taiwan is also part of China!).
