If we could, at this time, shrink the Earth's population
to a village of precisely 100 people,
with all the existing human ratios remaining the same,
it would look like this:

There would be 57 Asians, 21 Europeans, 14 from the Western Hemisphere (North, South and Central America) and 8 Africans.

70   would be non-white.
70   would be non-Christian; 30 Christian
50% of the entire world wealth would be in the hands of only 6 people. 3 would be citizens of the USA. 
70   would be unable to read.
50   would suffer from malnutrition.
80   would live in substandard housing.
Only 1 would have a college education.

When one considers our world from such an incredibly compressed perspective, the need for understanding and mutual respect becomes glaringly apparent.
