Syrian Arab Republic in 1960

As of 1960, the Syrian Arab Republic counted 4,673,500 inhabitants. A decade earlier, in 1950, the population was 3,612,080; it has grown by 29.4% since. The median age was 17.6 years, and for every 100 people of working age (15–64) there were 91.1 children under 15 and 10.1 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.
