The population distribution in Tanzania is extremely uneven. Most people live on the northern border or the eastern coast, with much of the remainder of the country being sparsely populated.〔"Economy", authored by Joseph Lake, in ''Africa South of the Sahara'', edited by Europa Publications and Iain Frame, Routledge, 2013〕 Density varies from in the Katavi Region to in the Dar es Salaam Region.〔 Approximately 70 percent of the population is rural, although this percentage has been declining since at least 1967.〔("Report reveals rapid rural-urban migration", ''The Citizen'', reported by Athuman Mtulya, 26 September 2013 )〕 Dar es Salaam is the ''de facto'' capital and largest city. Dodoma, located in the centre of Tanzania, is the ''de jure'' capital, although action to move government buildings to Dodoma has stalled. The population consists of about 125 ethnic groups.〔(''Ethnic Groups Worldwide: A Ready Reference Handbook'', authored by David Levinson, Greenwood Publishing Group, 1998, page 173 )〕 The Sukuma, Nyamwezi, Chagga, and Haya peoples have more than 1 million members each.〔(''Culture and Customs of Tanzania'', authored by Kefa M. Otiso, ABC-CLIO, LLC, 2013 )〕 Over 100 different languages are spoken in Tanzania, making it the most linguistically diverse country in East Africa.〔 Among the languages spoken in Tanzania are all four of Africa's language families: Bantu, Cushitic, Nilotic, and Khoisan.〔 Swahili and English are Tanzania's official languages.〔("East Africa", authored by Silvester Ron Simango, in ''Sociolinguistics: Regional overview'', edited by Ulrich Ammon, published by Walter de Gruyter, 2006, pages 1966-7 )〕 Swahili belongs to the Bantu branch of the Niger-Congo family.〔(【引用サイトリンク】 url=http://www.ethnologue.com/language/swh )〕 The Sandawe people speak a language that may be related to the Khoe languages of Botswana and Namibia, while the language of the Hadzabe people, although it has similar click consonants, is arguably a language isolate.〔(''Archaeology, Language, and the African Past'', authored by Roger Blench, published by Rowman Altamira, 2006, pages 163-5, accessed 19 October 2014 )〕 The language of the Iraqw people is Cushitic.〔("Iraqw", ''Ethnologue: Languages of the World'', edited by M. Paul Lewis, Gary F. Simons, and Charles D. Fennig, SIL International, Seventeenth edition, Dallas, Texas, USA, accessed 14 October 2014 )〕 Other languages are Indian languages and Portuguese (spoken by Goans and Mozambicans). Although much of Zanzibar's native population came from the mainland, one group known as Shirazis traces its origins to the island's early Persian settlers. Non-Africans residing on the mainland and Zanzibar account for 1 percent of the total population. The Asian community, including Hindus, Sikhs, Shi'a and Sunni Muslims, Parsis, and Goans, has declined by 50 percent in the past decade to 50,000 on the mainland and 4,000 on Zanzibar. An estimated 70,000 Arabs and 20,000 Europeans (90 percent of which are from the British diaspora) reside in Tanzania. Based on 1999–2003 data, over 74,000 Tanzanian-born people were living in Organization for Economic Co-operation and Development countries, with 32,630 residing in the United Kingdom; 19,960 in Canada; 12,225 in the United States; 1,714 in Australia; 1,180 in the Netherlands; and 1,012 in Sweden.〔(【引用サイトリンク】 title=Country-of-birth database )〕 ==Population== According to the 2012 census, the total population was 44,928,923 compared to 12,313,469 in 1967,〔(Population Distribution by Administrative Units, United Republic of Tanzania, 2013 )〕 resulting in an annual growth rate of 2.9 percent. The under 15 age group represented 44.1 percent of the population, with 35.5 percent being in the 15–35 age group, 52.2 percent being in the 15–64 age group, and 3.8 percent being older than 64.〔(Tanzania in figures 2012, National Bureau of Statistics, Ministry of Finance, June 2013, page 23 )〕 According to the 2012 revison of the World Population Prospects, children below the age of 15 constituted 44.8 percent of the total population, with 52.0 percent aged 15–64 and 3.1 percent aged 65 or older.〔(''World Population Prospects: The 2012 Revision'', Population Estimates and Projections Section, Population Division, Department of Economic and Social Affairs, United Nations )〕 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Demographics of Tanzania」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
