Census Update: What the World Will Look like in 2050
According to recently complied data in the form of a global census the world demographically will look at least somewhat differently in 2050 then from today.
India will be the world's most populous nation, followed by China which will be in minor population decline during this time. While the populations of Japan and Russia continue in sharp decline.
The Middle East, Africa, and the poorer parts of Asia and Latin America on the other hand will see a dramatic increase in their populations from their already high totals now to even high ones by 2050. For instance, Nigeria and Bangladesh will have over 400 million people, while Ethiopia will have over 200 million.
While many Industrialized nations will also look differently. The United State's population will be over 400 million by this period, with the possibility of a plurality of it's population being nonwhite since the majority-European descended population of the US is already in decline. Likewise similar trends will could be seen due to immigration in Australia, Canada, and New Zealand. Many European countries could see a population upswing again due to immigration.
