CIA World Factbook Facts

IMPORTANT/INTERESTING FACTS
1. The population pyramid of Ireland has most people in the reproductive years of their life. I thought this was interesting because I thought that Ireland had a fast growing population when it really is increasing slowly. This is important to what we are learning about in class because it is a population pyramid.
2. The birth rate of Iceland is 13.6 births/1000 population. I thought this was interesting because their birth rate is higher than the United States. It's important to what we're learning because we looked at birth rates and death rates.
3. India has more internet users than the United States. I thought this was interesting because I thought that India was a super poor country that barely had any internet. It's important to what we are learning because we are learning how the world communicates with one another.
4. The Infant Mortality rate in Togo is 40.8 deaths/1000 population. This was interesting because I didn't realize how many infants have the probability to die when they are born. This relates to what we learned because we looked at infant mortality rate for a little bit.
5. The population of the United Kingdom is 65,105,246. This surprised me because I thought that the United Kingdom was close to the top of the charts when it was ranked 22. It relates to what we have learned because we talked about population in class.
