The chart illustrates the size of population and life expectancy for five European countries in 1914 and 2014.

As is shown on the chart, Spain had the smallest population rate with 20 millions in 1914, while about 40 million people were living in the UK, Italy and France, which is as twice as in Spain population. Also, the Germany had the highest number of citizens in comparison to other countries, which was about 65 millions. In 1914, people in Spain, Italy, and Germany, died at the early ages, as they were between 40 and 50 ages. However, in the UK and France people lived longer, as they died at the ages of 60.
After a 100 years, the population size, in Spain, UK, Italy and France, doubled and increased to about 60 millions in UK, Italy and France, and 40 millions in Spain. Meanwhile,up to 80 millions of people were living in Germany by 2014. Interestingly, even though there was a big difference in life expectancy among five countries in 1914, in 2014, in all countries people lived until the same age, the age of 80.
