The charts below give information on the ages of the populations of Yemen and Italy in 2000 and projections for 2050.

The pie charts compare the ages of populations in

Yemen

and Italy in the years 2000 and 2050.

Overall

, it can be seen that

while

the 15-59 year-age group is expected to follow an upward trend throughout the surveyed period in

Yemen

, Italy's

population

is projected to drop in

this

category. Remarkably, both countries are predicted to record an increase in the elderly

population

. In 2000, in

Yemen

, the old

population

made up 3.6% of the total number of people in comparison with 24.1% in Italy. The 0-14 year group in Italy reached 14.3 %, which was almost 3 times higher than that of

Yemen

.

Moreover

, in Italy, the figure for 15-59 year-age was by far the most important in 2000, accounting for 61.6%,

while

Yemen

's young

population

just reached 46.3 % at the same time. In 2050,the 0-14 age group in

Yemen

is forecasted to account for 37%, which is higher than that figure in Italy roughly 25%.

While

a tiny fraction of the old

population

is projected to record in

Yemen

, 42.3% of Italy's

population

is expected to be the elderly. The figure for

Yemen

and Italy's 15-59-year-old
