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

The pie charts show the

share

of three age groups of two countries’ populations Yemen and Italy in the

years

2000 and 2050.

Overall

,

it is clear that

the biggest proportion of the two countries’ population is constituted 15-59

years

in both

years

.

In contrast

, Yemen showed that the largest

share

was 0-14

years

old in 2000. In Yemen, the biggest

share

of the aged population was the 0-14

years

group

with approximately half of the total

share

in 2000,

whereas

over 60

years

old comprised the

last

rank with 3.6%. It is noteworthy that there was little difference between the figure for the 0-14

years

group

and the 15-59

years

group

with a narrow margin of almost 4%.

In addition

, it is expected that the figure for the 15-59

years

group

population will stand first with 57.3% in 2050,

while

that for the over 60

years

group

also

will remain in

last

rank with 5.7%. In Italy, at the beginning of the period, the 15-59

years

group

comprised the biggest

group

with just over 2/3 total

share

.

In addition

, the percentage of the over 60

years

group

was almost a quarter of the total

share

, and the figure for the youngest

group

was 14.3%. It is predicted that there will be little difference between the percentage of the oldest

group

and the 15-59

years

group

, as that of the latter will stand first.
