Read a population pyramid, free

Name the stage of the demographic transition from the pyramid, then change the birth and death rates and watch the growth rate, the doubling time and the shape change. No account.

1. Name the stageAs many rounds as you like

Which stage of the demographic transition does this pyramid most likely show?

2. Change the ratesPer 1,000 people a year

Move the rates and the pyramid redraws to the shape a population settles into when they hold for generations.

2% a year
Doubling time

(30 − 10) ÷ 10 = 2%; 70 ÷ 2 ≈ 35 years. Death rates have fallen but birth rates are still high, so the population grows fast.
