+ If the world were a village of 100 people:

- 11 would be European,
- 9 would be Latin or South American,
- 5 would be North American,
- none of the villagers would be from Australia, Oceania, or Antarctica.
- At least 18 villagers would be unable to read or write but 33 would have cellular phones and 16 would be online on the Internet.
- 27 villagers would be under 15 years of age and 7 would be over 64 years old.
- There would be an equal number of males and females.
- There would be 18 cars in the village.
- 63 villagers would have inadequate sanitation.

- 33 villagers would be Christians,
- 20 would be Muslims,
- 13 would be Hindus,
- 6 would be Buddhists,
- 2 would be atheists,
- 12 would be non-religious,
- and the remaining 14 would be members of other religions.
- 30 villagers would be unemployed or underemployed.
+ while of those 70 who would work,
- 28 would work in agriculture (primary sector),

- 53 villagers would live on less than two U.S. dollars a day,
- One villager would have AIDS,
- 26 villagers would smoke,
