I have no idea what country had the largest population at the date you mention. I'm not sure that the information is available. However, the largest maritime power was probably Spain. England was challenging but took some time catching up. By the 1660s The Netherlands were powerful, so much so that it's navy attacked the south of England without being challenged.
