1. Aruba is a country that has about 115,000 people. I ma surprised because it is a decent sized place. In addition, their birth rate is about four points above their death rate.
2. Dominican Republic is a Spanish speaking country that has about 11,000,000 people. However it is 95% catholic which is shocking to me because it is not associated with a lot of Spanish ancestry of the catholic faith.
3. Ireland is a country that has 5,000,000 people. It is weird to me that 2.1% of them are Asian. In my mind I feel that there would be no asians because it has nothing to do with asian culture.
4. Another thing weird about Ireland is that they are over 75% catholic but have a religion of Ireland that less than 2% of the population is a part of.
5. Morocco is a place that has around 34,000,000 people. However 99% of them are Arab. That I would have never expected. I always thought it was a tropical place where you go on vacation. In addition they have a birth rate about 14-15 points higher than the death rate.
