he graph below shows the proportion of the population aged 65 and over between 1940 and 2040 in three different countries.

The graph displays the proportion of the elderly, from 65 years old and over in the middle of a century in three independent nations. The most noticeable progressions are the one from Japan and the USA, for Japan, their elder community was the lowest, while in the USA they were the higher proportion, but it’s expected that for 2040, Japan will have the highest percentage and the USA the lowest. Firstly, in 1940 in the USA 9% of their population was 65 years old and over, this percentage slightly climbed until 1960, then it sky-rocketed until 1980. In 1980. It began to decrease. In 2020 it started to increase again and it’s predicted that it will continue increasing. On the other hand, the Swedish elder population began at 7%, but increase almost all of the time between 1940 and 2040. Their elderly population percentage decline modestly between 1980 and 1990, and also started decreasing in 1990 and it’s anticipated to continue decreasing until 2025, but then the number of elder population should sky-rocket. Japan began with only 5% of people aged 65 and over, but it’s predicted to be the highest percentage between the three countries in 2040. Their representation in the chart shows a regular decreasing with slight climbs, but from 1985 is started climbing proportionally, increasing every period a little bit more, and supposedly sky-rocketing in 2030. In conclusion, Sweden will keep being the country in the middle of the percentage with a continuous climb, while the USA and Japan will switch places. Japan will have a drastic change and the USA will decrease eventually but will recover.
