Asia in 1990

The population of Asia in 1990 was 3,209,882,612. That is 21.9% more than in 1980, when the population stood at 2,632,326,521. The median age was 22.8 years, and for every 100 people of working age (15–64) there were 55.9 children under 15 and 7.9 people aged 65 or over. 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.
