Age of Marriage

The bar graph shows the decline, over the past few decades, in the percentage of women aged 15-19 who are married in six selected Arab countries. The table gives us the age of first marriage for men and women in twelve Arab countries, plus Turkey and Iran.
From the chart graph we figure out that the percentage of women between fifteen and nineteen who are married has fallen during the past few decades. The UAE had the most dramatic fall in the percentage of young women who are married, followed by Libya and Kuwait.

In the table graph the figures show that the ages of men who got married for first time are between mid twenties and late twenties and for the ages of women who got married are between early twenties and mid twenties.


The bar chart shows the percentage of women aged 15-19 who are married has fallen in all 6 Arab countries. The second graph seems to confirm this because in all countries the age of marriage for women was the early twenties, rather than the teens. In all countries men get married at the late age
