🌍 If the World Had Only 100 People
An Interactive Look at Population Dynamics
Why 100 People?
Scaling global stats down to 100 makes them easier to understand visually.
- 1 person = 1%
- Easy to imagine
- More relatable
World Population by Region

Population Pyramid
{

Birth vs Death Rates
{
"labels": ["2000", "2010", "2020", "2030"],
"datasets": [
{ "label": "Birth Rate", "data": [2.1, 2.4, 2.3, 2.2], "color": "#4bc0c0" },
{ "label": "Death Rate", "data": [1.2, 1.3, 1.4, 1.5], "color": "#ff6384" }
]
}
Natural Increase
Natural Increase = Births - Deaths
- If 2 babies born, 1 person dies → Net increase = 1
- Impacts population growth
Doubling Time
If growth rate is 2%, population doubles in about 35 years.
Doubling Time = 70 ÷ Growth Rate
Push & Pull Factors (Migration)
- Push: war, unemployment, disaster
- Pull: jobs, safety, better quality of life
