Stage 1: Before industrial revolution. Started as hunters and gatherers. High birth rate, death rate, and low NIR/population. Birth rate slightly higher than the death rate, slow population increase. No countries in this stage currently. All countries are in at least stage 2.
Stage 2: Started from the industrial revolution. England was first to do it then U.S. birth rate remains high while death rate drops. Population/NIR rises higher than the birth rate. High production means more money, which leads to more medicine/bigger houses for kids.
Stage 3: Lower birth rate, death rate remains, population/NIR peaks then drops. Women have less children because they enter the workforce. Population falls greatly. Birth rate still higher than death rate, population slowly increases. people live in cities, bad idea to have large families. Colonial Mexico experienced the stage.
Stage 4: Slow time for the country. Birth rate barely higher than death rate, population rises very slowly. Birth rate will equal death rate, the country enters stage 5 when the birth rate is lower than the death rate. Some women die before child bearing years. Others are working instead of staying home and having a family. major countries such as U.S, England, Canada are in this stage.
Stage 5: No countries has reached the stage yet. Just a theory of what may happen.
