When I made the first version of this population pyramid (+10 years ago) I was impressed by the difference between male and female structures. Then I learned a bit more about male migrants basically building a country from scratch. How many deaths does it take to do it? Because it's not the stadiums only, and it's not #Qatar only (the Emirates, Bahrain). #FIFAWorldCup (Data: UN Population Prospects 2022)

Can I use it for a 3D exercise (in case you have the dset available)? I kind of miss exercising my 3D NURBS skills...

@danz68 there are two very clean CSV files on the UN site. I can share the Excel file with you, but it's a pivot table, since the whole table is much larger than 1M rows.
World Population Prospects - Population Division - United Nations

@mduvekot @danz68 the last two (estimates and projections) under CSV format.

Thanks for clarifying. I was struggling with this link

http://data.un.org/Data.aspx?d=POP&f=tableCode%3A22

but is not clear how can I download early years (any download starts in 1986, disregarding the filter...)

Tx again.
