The table shows population figures for four countries — Australia, Canada, New Zealand, and the United States — from 1990 to 2000, and also gives future projections for 2020 and 2050.
In 1990, the United States had the highest population, at 249.9 million, followed by Canada (26.6 million), Australia (17.1 million), and New Zealand (3.4 million). Over the next decade, the population of all four countries increased. By 2000, the U.S. population rose to 275.1 million, while Canada reached 31.0 million, Australia 19.2 million, and New Zealand 3.8 million.
By 2020, the trend of growth continued. The population of the United States increased to 320.6 million, Canada to 36.9 million, Australia to 22.7 million, and New Zealand to 4.3 million.
The table also predicts that by 2050, all countries will see further growth. The U.S. is expected to have a population of 349.0 million. Canada’s population will likely grow to 39.0 million, Australia’s to 26.0 million, and New Zealand’s to 4.7 million.
Overall, the data shows steady population growth in all four countries over the 60-year period.
