A population profile is a map of the age and sex structure of a country. The men and women are opposite each other and increase up the graph by birth cohorts. These maps help determine the state in which a country is progressing, whether they have a negative growth rate, positive growth rate, are developing or more developed regions. In this population profile of Scotland we see that the bottom cohorts are smaller than the middle ones indicating the birthrate has dropped. Scotland is a more developed region and is a stable country when it comes to growth.
