Based off of the Population Pyramids below, the statistics to the left, and the understanding of the Demographic Transition Model; it can be inferred that Chad is in Stage 2 of the Demographic Transition Model. This stage can be justified by the fact that Chad's Birth Rate is 48 births per 1,000 people, and Stage 2 will demonstrate a high Birth Rate. Also, the Death Rate of 14 deaths per 1,000 people is considered high. Stage 2 of the Demographic Transition Model will display that type of data. Lastly, the Life Expectancy at Birth is 49.81 years, the Life Expectancy at Birth for Females is 51.03 years, and the Life Expectancy at Birth for Males is 48.64 years; Stage 2 is the stage that will show a life expectancy of 45-55 years.
