See ranking tables to view other geography and subject matter. Updated world by country demographic estimates and projections were completed by the Census Bureau in the summer 2008. The data cover 226 countries and areas. Subject matter include midyear population, area and density; population by age and gender; birth and death, migration and growth rates; births, deaths and migrants; life expectancy and mortality rate; and fertility. See http://www.census.gov/ipc/www/idb/ for more information. Proximity has integrated these data into a world by country shapefile enabling visual analysis of demographic composition and trends.
