The pie charts below illustrate the data on the populations’ ages of both countries Yemen and Italy divided into three categories, (0-14 years, 15-59 years, +60 years), in 2000, and the predicted percentages for 2050.
Overall, it is predicted that, in Yemen, the percentage of individuals of age (15-59 years ) will increase moderately at the expense of those aged (0-14 years). While in Italy, after 50 years, most of the population will be from 15 to +60 years.
In Yemen, in 2000, almost half of the population aged 0-14 years, whereas the other half was dominated by those who aged 15-59 years, at 46.3%. there was a minimal proportion of people aged +60 years old, at 3.6%. However, the projection after 50 years is that there will be an increase of about 11% for the middle-aged class (15 to 59). In contrast, the youngest class proportion is going to drop by about 13%. There will be an insignificant rise in +60-year-old people.
In Italy, in 2000, almost three-fifths of the population were constituted by 15-59 years of age. The plus 60 years category constituted nearly one-quarter, while the lowest percentage for those aged from 0 to 14 years, at 14.3%. In 2050, it is expected that the geriatric individuals who are +60 will grow in percentage by approximately 20%, while the mid-range aged people (15-59) will decrease by 15%; however, they still constitute the dominant group of the population. There is an infinitesimal reduction projected to occur for the 0-14 years group.
