The table supplied illustrates the rates of birth and death, as well as the maximum ages of both sexes at ten-year intervals from 1960 to 2000.
Overall, it is evident from the data that the birth and death numbers varied over the period, while the maximum ages of both sexes sustained a gradual rise in the years in question.
Looking at the table in more detail, in 1960, the number of births was 40000, five times larger than the death in that year. This was followed by a growth in both child birth and death, reaching 46000 and 11000 respectively in 1970. Moreover, the figure for birth, in 1980, climbed to 50000, the highest of all other numbers in other years in question and almost three times more than the death rate in the very year. In a stark contrast, however, the birth rate declined by 18.000 whereas the figure for death rose to 28000 by 1990. Furthermore, the following decade experienced a rise in both birth and death rate, by a mere 4000 and 12000 respectively.
In terms of the maximum ages of people, females lived longer by two years than males in the first three decades. The maximum ages of women were 67 in 1960, 69 in 1970 and 72 in 1980. Additionally, the oldest woman was 74 while the oldest man was 73 in 1990. In the next ten years, the maximum ages of females and males were 76 and 75 respectively.
