for just a review about a part I will probably struggle with, The demographic transition is a process of change in a society's population from high crude birth and death rates and low rate of natural increase to a condition of low crude birth and death rates, low natural increase, and higher total population. For most of human history we were in stage one of the demographic transition, but now no country is in that phase and have moved to stage two. The first countries to stage two were Europe and North America and they got there after 1750, as a result of the industrial revolution, which involved major improvements in manufacturing goods and delivering them to market. The rest of the world like Africa, Asia, and Latin America did not enter until 1950 and this was because of the medical revolution. Medical technology invented in Europe and North America has diffused to developing countries.
