1a) Japan
1c) Japan has a population of 126,804,433. Japan's population density is 336 persons per square kilometre. The estimated birth rate per 1000 people last year was 7.41 while the estimated death per 1000 people was 9.83. The 2010 estimate of the sex ratio is 1.056 males/females,for 15 years and under- 1.06 males/females, for 15-64 years- 1.02 males/females, 65 years and over-0.74 males/females. The total population- 0.95 males/females. Japan's growth rate has decreased by 0.22%, compared to 2009's population in Japan.
1e) There might be more elderly people compared to the younger people. If this is the case, Japan might suffer from a decrease in population which will lead to rise in taxes and etc. There will be fewer people, therefore, the people there have to pay more as they are not as many people as before.

Japan has a larger population than that of France. Japan also has a beehive population pyramid.Japan, like France,is also a place where the population is decreasing. I have realized that this problem is becoming more frequent in developed countries. I think this may be caused by the higher standards of living nowadays.

The population of Japan is definately higher than the population of Vietnam. The population density is lower and that could be due to a larger land area in Japan. Vietnam has a natural increase in population while Japan has a natural decrease in population. Japan has a beehive shaped population pyramid and so does Vietnam, but Vietnam's is almost a triangle as it has more youths.
