implications of population data. Key data for the countries to be discussed are presented in the following tables. Rate of Natural Increase (%) Infant Mortality per 1000, per year

2005). The first glaring difference between countries is the very low life expectancy in Rwanda, 44 years, and Iraq, 57 years as compared to Costa Ricas 76 years, the United
