The birth rate in Venezuela is births/1,000 population and the country comparison to the world 90, and the death rate is 5.31 deaths/1,000 population and the country comparison to the world 181. The urban population is 89% of total population and the rate of urbanization is 1.54% annual rate of change. Population growth rate is 1.42%. The natural increase rate =(birth rate- death rate )/1000 = ( )/1000 = % ,The doubling time (72 ÷ 1.385%= %). The total fertility rate 2.32 children born/woman. The infant mortality rate total is deaths/1,000 live births, male deaths/1,000 live births, and female deaths/1,000 live births.

6. Demographic Transition Analysis
Demographic transition, in the previous slides show that the highest population of people is below the ages of 54 years old. The younger energetic population is increasing rapidly. This fact showing that Venezuela has a large population of energetic people that it requires to facilitate its industrialization efforts now and in future. With a drop in death and infant mortality rates , higher birth and expectancy rate , informing the fact that Venezuela has sufficient resources to cater for its population ,also worth noting is the fact that the population growth rate of 1.42 % is quite high and indicative of the fact that more children and increasing population would stretch the country’s economy and demand for benefits would keep increasing and in effect increase the wage burden and the stretch on meager resources available, even though the country is highly developed it will be problematic to sustain the increasing wage demand . Venezuela is at the third stage of demographic transition as it is observable the increasing urban migration at 1.54% and a majority of the population concentrated in urban areas at about 89% ,the countries NIR is high as effect of urbanization reflect and the employers will experience stretched out budgets in effects to pay satisfactory wages to this population.

7. Arithmetic Density Arithmetic Density = Population/Land Area
Arithmetic Density= 29,275,560 people/ 882, 050 sq km
Arithmetic Density = people per. square kilometer
The most populous region or cities are Caracas the capital with a population density of million, followed by Maracaibo , Valencia, Maracay and Barquisimeto with a population of ,1.734,1.166 and million respectively in (2015).While the other cities are less densely populated, the population is majorly concentrated in cities informed by the trend in urban migration and the tendency of the population to ditch farming and seek employment in cities, the density pattern reflect movement to areas around the coastline and industrial cities and movement away from agricultural areas that have been affected by droughts, floods and migrating energetic population.

8. Migration
Net migration rate: 0 migrant(s)/1,000 population (2015 est.). Rank No. 109 in the world
Refugees (country of origin): 173,519 (Columbia) (2014)

Summary:
The major international disputes associated with Venezuela is the maritime dispute between the country and its neighbors that include Trinidad and Tobago over the areas west of Essequibo River that even Guyana wishes to be enjoined, other than that the other dispute also on maritime boundaries is with Colombia over the use of its maritime boundary for smuggling drugs.
Venezuela economy is highly dependant on oil which is subject to inflation and price fluctuations , its per capita ranking is no 213 in the world right after Equatorial Guinea and its followed in number 2014 by Cyprus. The 0 migration rate is of concern and majorly informed by political alignment and its rigid labor rules together with the drop in oil prices that has caused a drop in economic performance as oil forms over 94% of its per capita revenue.
