Why Does Population Growth Vary Among Regions?
Demographic Transition- Is the process of change in a society's
population from high crude birth and death rates and low rate of
natural increase to a condition to low crude birth rates and death
rates, low rate of natural increase and higher population. The process
consists of 4 stages, and every country is in one of them.
At first most of human history was spent in stage one of the demographic transition, but no country remains in that stage. Every country has at least moved onto stage 2 of the demographic transition, and with that transition has experienced profound changes in population. For this Period most people experienced hunting and gathering for food. When food was easily obtained a regions population increased, but declined when unable to gather animals or vegetation nearby. But some other causes were because of the Industrial Revolution which began in the United Kingdom in the late 18th century and diffused to the European continents and North America including the United States. The Industrial Revolution was a conjunction of major improvements in manufacturing good and shipping them in and out. Stage 2 didn't diffuse to Asia Africa and Latin America until the late 1950. The late 20th century push of developing countries into stage 2 was the Medical Revolution. The Medical Revolution was when medical technology was developed in Europe and North America has diffused into other countries. This eliminated the traditional causes of death in countries which allowed people to have a happier and healthier lives. Where people live also is also effected by Crude Birth Rate- is the total number of live births in a year for every 1,000 people. Crude Death Rate- is the total number of deaths in a year for every 1,000 people alive in the society. Natural Increase Rate- is the percentage by which a population grows in a year.
