The purpose of this paper is to examine selected United States demographics, and to compare them with those of two other nations with significantly different population age distributions. You will analyze some of the ways in which these factors impact the social, health, and economic realities of each nation. You will also compare the U.S. with these two countries by applying Modernization Theory to project how each demographic pattern might explain differences in the roles of older people in each country.
Compare these 3 pages on the Population Reference Bureau website regarding the US, China, and Ethiopia.

Scrutinize this information and compare one country to the other. It may be easier to print them off and compare them in hard copy. Now, go to the Population Pyramid site and retrieve the population pyramids for each one of the countries, and compare these as well.
Then, in a 5-8 page paper:
Cut and paste the appropriate population pyramids from the Population Pyramid site into your paper. Your pyramids should show the shape and proportion of various age groups within each population.

Identify factors from the statistics listed for each country that you believe are important in determining how people will age in these countries. The statistics listed include a wide variety of factors that clearly impact upon the life of all residents. Explain why you chose each of these factors, using your assigned readings, study notes, and other resources you may wish to add, for support.
Compare the statistics on these selected factors for each of the three countries. Discuss differences and similarities among them.
Interpret your comparisons using Modernization Theory.
Picture yourself as a 65 year old living in these countries, and describe how you would see your personal future in each one.Written Assignment
