SOURCES: The distribution of the population according to age. Information is included by sex and age group (0-14 years, 15-64 years, 65 years and over). The age structure of a population affects a nation's key socioeconomic issues. Countries with young populations (high percentage under age 15) need to invest more in schools, while countries with older populations (high percentage ages 65 and over) need to invest more in the health sector. The age structure can also be used to help predict potential political issues. For example, the rapid growth of a young adult population unable to find employment can lead to unrest.; The distribution of the population according to age.

The birth rate is usually the dominant factor in determining the rate of population growth. It depends on both the level of fertility and the age structure of the population. ; This entry provides a rank ordering of ethnic groups starting with the largest and normally includes the percent of total population. ; Female population - Age 10-14 - % of the total, as of April 26, 2005 ; Female population - Age 15-19 - % of the total, as of April 26, 2005 ; The adjective which identifies citizens of the nation ; (Thousands) Medium-variant projections.; The number of males for each female one of five age groups - at birth, under 15 years, 15-64 years, 65 years and over, and for the total population. Sex ratio at birth has recently emerged as an indicator of certain kinds of sex discrimination in some countries. For instance, high sex ratios at birth in some Asian countries are now attributed to sex-selective abortion and infanticide due to a strong preference for sons. This will affect future marriage patterns and fertility patterns. Eventually it could cause unrest among young adult males who are unable to find partners.; The number of males for each female one of five age groups - at birth, under 15 years, 15-64 years, 65 years and over, and for the total population.
