Population structure is very important to a country’s economy. If a country‘s main population structure is young people and working, it means that the country has enough labor to build and develop the county’s economy. If it’s the opposite, the it could be a big problem.
Let’s take a look at these four charts. They give the population age figures for Yemen and Italy in 2000 and projections for 2050. In Yemen, 50. 1% of the population is 0-14years old, but in Italy the figure is only 14. 3%. the population age is 15-59 years old in Yemen is 46. 3%, Italy has a bigger figure is 61. 6%, it means that Italy has more enough workers than Yemen. But Yemen’s over 60 years old people is only 4. 6%, it is less than Italy’s 24, 1%.
these charts also give us the information to project for 2050. In 2050, Yemen will have 37% of people aged 0-14years, the figure of Italy is only 11. 5%. Yemen will have more than a half of people are 15-59years old, it is 57. 3%. this figure is 46. 2% in Italy. And Italy will have a very large number of people over 60 years old, it is up to 42. 3%. But this figure for Yemen is only 5. 7%.
In the future, Yemen will have a large number of workers and very small number of people over 60, which is very good for developing the country’s economy. But the situation in Italy will be not good. The large number of people over 60 will put a lot of pressure on the Italian society.

Let

14. 3%.
the
population
age is 15-59 years

in Yemen is 46. 3%, Italy has a bigger

But
Yemen’s
