Europe Population Pyramid 1966
Europe in 1966
As of 1966, Europe counted 639,413,302 inhabitants. A decade earlier, in 1956, the population was 581,156,302; it has grown by 10.0% since.
Half of the population was younger than 31.1 years; 26.2% were children under 15 and 9.7% 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.
