19th August 2005 		There are more pyramids in Sudan (south of egypt ) than in Egypt combined. But because of its lack of modern conveniences not many tourists have visited it. The oldest pyramids head back all the way to eighth century B.C. It's a shame they have to be forgotten.

20th July 2005 		I seriously advise NationMaster to revise its description for Brazil's population. The current description gives an erroneous account of the number of deaths related to AIDS in Brazil. Unlike what happens in many countries in southern Africa, AIDS is not a prevalent cause of death in Brazil and has none or only marginal effects on the total size of the population. Brazil is cited by many health organizations as "the" positive example for fighting AIDS. Even developed countries should learn from Brazil on this issue.

19th January 2005 		Many other countries face problems at the other end of the spectrum, having an increasing proportion of young people below 24. This profile has its own attendant set of development issues and problems.

What are the development implications of having a younger population?

Governments would need to budget for education and related social infrastructure accordingly. In poorer countries, unemployment rates may rise, aggravating social tensions; in addition, fertility and birth rates may go up, requiring relevant planning to address related issues, such as teenage pregnancy.

Suchita Vemuri

19th January 2005 		The world passed a milestone on June 16, 1999, when its population touched six billion. India and China alone accounted for close to a third of this total. Though population growth remains a serious development issue, the Malthusian theory of arithmetic growth in resources and geometric population growth resulting in poverty and unsustainable lifestyles has been modified to include political, technological and economic systems being more decisive factors.
