I have been assigned a very unique country, Denmark. Current population of Denmark is 5,730,488. On the other hand, current population of United States 422,554,384. Birth rate in united states is 13.69 per 1000 whereas the birthrate in Denmark is 10.29 per 1000. Death rate in United States is 8.38 per 1000 whereas the death rate in Denmark is 10.19 per 1000. This is a clear reflection of better and much advance health facilities in the United States. Life expectancy in the United States is 78.37 whereas the life expectancy in Denmark is 78.63. Infant mortality rate in the United States is 6.06 whereas in Denmark it is 4.04.
