Population pyramid by age and sex of Malawi from the US Bureau of Population and Census database ( https://www.census.gov/population/international/data/idb/region.php?N= Results &T=12&A=separate&RT=0&Y=2016&R=−1&C=MI ). The plots show exponential decay in population size by age, with a mean life expectancy 1 μ \left(\raisebox{1ex}{$1$}\!\left/ \!\raisebox{-1ex}{$\upmu $}\right.\right) for the total population of approximately 50 years.
