Death rate (births/1,000 population):|

This entry gives the average annual number of deaths during a year per 1,000 population at midyear; also known as crude death rate. The death rate, while only a rough indicator of the mortality situation in a country, accurately indicates the current mortality impact on population growth. This indicator is significantly affected by age distribution, and most countries will eventually show a rise in the overall death rate, in spite of continued decline in mortality at all ages, as declining fertility results in an aging population.

Rank	Country	Death rate (births/1,000 population)
1	Angola	23.4
2	Afghanistan	17.09
3	South Africa	16.06
4	Nigeria	16.04
5	Russia	15.74
6	Ukraine	15.47
7	Chad	15.47
8	Guinea-Bissau	15.27
9	Lesotho	15.19
10	Central African Republic	15.01

Birth rate (births/1,000 population

 This entry gives the average annual number of births during a year per 1,000 persons in the population at midyear; also known as crude birth rate. The birth rate is usually the dominant factor in determining the rate of population growth. It depends on both the level of fertility and the age structure of the population.

Rank	Country	Birth rate (births/1,000 population)
1	Niger	50.54
2	Uganda	47.49
3	Mali	45.62
4	Zambia	44.08
5	Burkina	43.59
6	Ethiopias	42.99
7	Angola	42.91
8	Ethiopia	3.19
9	Burundi	41.01
10	Malawi	40.85

Population growth rate (%)

The average annual percent change in the population, resulting from a surplus (or deficit) of births over deaths and the balance of migrants entering and leaving a country. The rate may be positive or negative. The growth rate is a factor in determining how great a burden would be imposed on a country by the changing needs of its people for infrastructure (e.g., schools, hospitals, housing, roads), resources (e.g., food, water, electricity), and jobs. Rapid population growth can be seen as threatening by neighboring countries.
