Tid bit of Info!

Our World's population exceeds six billion. However, if the global population was only 1,000 people, it would include:
584 Asians
124 Africans
150 Eastern & Western Europeans & former Soviets
84 Latin Americans
52 NORTH AMERICANS
6 Australians & New Zealanders

About 50% of the people would speak the following languages:
165 Mandarin
86 English
83 Hindi/Urdu
64 Spanish
58 Russian
37 Arabic
The other half speaks Bengali, Portuguese, Indonesian, Japanese, German, French, and 200 other languages.
