Out of the countries that we studied, Swaziland is the only country that has a death rate bigger than its birth rate. This means, of course, that it is not growing but rather diminishing in population. Brazil is the only country in which its Birth Rate triples its death rate, which highlights the amazingly rapid growth of this nation. The United States has the most significant amount of people over the age of 65, with 12.7% of its population being made up by elders.In turn, Swaziland has the largest population of children under 14, which make up 39.9% of the population.
