The charts below give information on the ages of populations of Yemen and Italy in 2000 and projections for 2050.
The pie charts compare
Yemen
and Italy in terms of the proportion of people falling into three distinct
age
groups over a 50-year period starting from 2000. It is noticeable that the majority of the population from 0-14 in
Yemen
and Italy will decrease,
while
a reverse trend will be seen in the elderly.

, Italy is anticipated to
age
over a 50- timescale. As can be seen from the charts, the percentage of the 0-14
age
group in
Yemen
held the lion's share, accounting for 50,1%, which was 14,3% higher than that of Italy.
Thereafter
, both witnessed significant declines, with respective numbers being 37,0% and 11,5% by 2050.
By contrast
, the rate of the old will increase from 3,6% to 5,7% in
Yemen
and from 24,1% to 42,3% in Italy from 2000 to 2050 respectively. In terms of the 15-59
age
group, 61,6% of the population came from Italy in 2000, compared to 46,3% in
Yemen
.
Subsequently
, it is predicted that the figure for Italy will drop to 46,2% by 2050, whilst
