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

The pie charts illustrate data about the proportion of Yemeni and Italian citizens

according to

3 different age groups in 2000, with the future forecast for 2050. In general, it can be seen that in both countries the general trend is for a predicted increase in the

population

of people aged 60+ and a decrease in those aged 0-14 by 2050. In 2000 just over half the

population

of

Yemen

were under 14 year-olds, compare to just over 14% of Italians in the same age group. Only a fewest percentage of people in

Yemen

were over 60 at 3.6%, in contradiction of nearly a quarter of the Italian

population

. The largest group for Italy was the 15-59-year-olds with just over 60%

while

Yemen

had 46.3% of its

population

in

this

category. The prediction is pretty clear: both of countries expects that older part of their will increase to 2050 and young part will be decreased at the same time:

Yemen

will have 5.7%/37.0% of these groups of people

while

Italy will have much more olders: 42.3%/11.5%. Working-age

population

will be grow to 57.3% in

Yemen

and drop to 46.2% in Italy.
