adolescents

show examples

to

adults

. Meanwhile, it is given that

adults

number

in both countries in 2050.

To begin

with, both countries had a totally different

population

at the beginning of the period. In 2000, the

number

of

Yemen

's

population

.

In contrast

, the same category was nearly 14% of Italy's

population

. In the next category, there were approximately 46% of

Yemen

's

population

was in the adult phase

while

almost a third of Italy's

population

was

adults

.

Finally

, the elderly were the least

number

of

Yemen

's

population

with only 3.6%

whereas

there were 8 times

this

number

in Italy. In terms of the projections for 2050, both countries are targeting

adults

as the highest

population

. For

children

, it is predicted to decline to 37% in

Yemen

and to 11.5% in Italy.

On the other hand

, the

number

of elderly will grow almost twice it was in 2000 in each country.
