Africa in 1995

The population of Africa in 1995 was 732,695,155. Over the previous ten years the population grew by 30.9%, up from 559,663,770 in 1985. Half of the population was younger than 17.9 years; 43.8% were children under 15 and 3.2% were 65 or older. This is an expansive pyramid — each cohort of children is larger than the one above it, the signature of high birth rates and rapid growth.
