This document provides statistics on the birth rate and death rate in an unspecified country from 2000 to 2011. It begins with an estimate of the country's population in July 2012 of 2,889,187 people, which ranks it 139th in population size globally with a density of 252 people per square kilometer ranking it 49th. The birth rate steadily declined from 18.51 births per 1,000 people in 2000 to 19.2 births per 1,000 people in 2011. The death rate increased slightly from 5.51 deaths per 1,000 people in 2000 to 6.54 deaths per 1,000 people in 2011.

2. Birth rate (births/1,000 population)
Definition of Birth rate: This entry gives the average annual number of births during a year per 1,00
persons in the population at midyear; also known as crude birth rate. The birth rate is usually the
dominant factor in determining the rate of population growth. It depends on both the level of fertility
and the age structure of the population.

3. Death rate (deaths/1,000 population)
Definition of Death rate: This entry gives the average annual number of deaths during a year per
1,000 population at midyear; also known as crude death rate. The death rate, while only a rough
indicator of the mortality situation in a country, accurately indicates the current mortality impact on
population growth. This indicator is significantly affected by age distribution, and most countries wil
eventually show a rise in the overall death rate, in spite of continued decline in mortality at all ages,
as declining fertility results in an aging population.
