The London has the oldest subway, it was opened in 1863 and also the longest
route by 394 km, while Kyotos subway has the shortest track and the lowest
passangers only 45 million in yearly. Pariss underground system has closely similar
percentage as longer with Tokyo and Washington DC. It has only half the size of
London railway by 199 km of route. Tokyo is the popular subway which the most
used passangers up to 1921 millions per year. Two most recent railway stations are
Kyoto and Los Angeles, those started in the year 1981 and 2001. Kyoto has the half
track of Los Angeless subway system by 11 km of route. However they serves only
by 45 millions of Kyoto and 50 millions of Los Angeles.
Overall, Tokyo has the doubling passangers then the oldest countries. It might
caused Tokyo has the busiest underground line compared compared to the other 5
countries.

The graph illustrates the proportion of the population aged 65 and over between
1940 and 2040 in three different countries consisting of Japan, Sweden, and USA
In 1940, the percentage of elderly people in all countries was below 10%. The USA
and Sweden had a gradual upward trend starting with a percentage respectively of
9% and 7% in 1940 grow until 23% and 25% in 2040. However Japan has a lower
trend about 5% of elders until 2020, by contras it will rocket by 2020 to reach a
peak of almost 30% in 2040.
The rate in Sweden had been fluctuated after 1980 and those reaches to 25% in
2040. The rate of the USA had equal to Sweden at about 14% in 1998, then the
elderly people in Sweden has been surpassed in the USA from 1998 to 2040.
