World population prospects : the 2012 revision. Volume 2, demographic profiles

This volume of the 2012 Revision presents the demographic profiles of the official United Nations population estimates and projections. The demographic profiles display key demographic indicators for selected periods or dates between 1950-2100, for the world, development groups, major areas, regions and countries or areas with more than 90,000 inhabitants in 2013. In all tables and figures, values for 1950-2010 are estimates and those thereafter are projections (medium variant). For each country or area the volume also provides a brief description of the data sources and demographic methods that were used to derive the base-year estimates.
