Population Profile

Population Profiles are often portrayed in a pyramid-like form representing population statistics over a given time. This map is of Saxony, and it represents a very backwards trend, with a small infant population and a lare adult population, which could imply lack of reproduction or high infancy death rates. For developed countries, there is usually a much more defined pyramid-like shape to the population profile.
