Demography describes, analyzes and evaluates the processes of demographic reproduction (birth rate, mortality, nuptiality, divorce rate, abortion rate) in the context of the population development of individual countries, continents and the world as a whole. It provides basic input knowledge to all fields dealing with people, human populations and societies (anthropology, sociology, history, economics, political science, social medicine, social geography, ecology, international relations, etc.). Population prognoses as a result of demographic knowledge have a broad theoretical, but also practical use of administration, health, education, insurance, and the entire economic and social spheres.
