National statistics were drawn from the United Nations Statistics Division’s Demographic Statistics Database (http://data.un.org/Data.aspx?d=POP&f=tableCode%3A22), which compiles data from questionnaires dispatched annually to national statistical offices. Distributions are calculated for national data restricted to the same age ranges represented in the cohorts.
Percentages may not add up to 100% due to rounding.
