South Sudan in 1970

In 1970, South Sudan had a total population of 3,409,614 people. A decade earlier, in 1960, the population was 2,931,559; it has grown by 16.3% since. The median age was 17.7 years, and for every 100 people of working age (15–64) there were 83.6 children under 15 and 4.3 people aged 65 or over. The pyramid is expansive: its wide base of young cohorts reflects high fertility and a rapidly growing population.
