North Korea Census and Population pyramid

  1. Describe the situation in the country based on the info in your population pyramid (births, deaths, health, age, male/female, type of pyramid, stage in DTM etc.)
    Based on my population pyramid the births in North Korea have risen from the years before, the deaths have risen slightly.  The country looks over all healthy and has a sustainable population. The Population is mainly under 60 but there are many people that are older.  The pyramid is a mix between constructive and expansive,  It looks like North Korea is in stage 3 or stage 4 based on the population pyramid.
  2. Explain what the country needs to prepare for in the near future and why you think that. (health, population, business, policies, etc. Connect this to your observations)
    North Korea needs to prepare for a decline population because the country is slowly becoming less healthy based on rising deaths.  Their businesses will probably start to cater to aging population because the main part is going to be going into retirement.  Their policies will start to care for the elderly and children because the elderly population is growing and the young population is shrinking.
