Hi, I wasn't sure what was meant by death rate. Is this infant mortality? I mean, in real terms every country in the world has the same death rate - 100%. I.e. everyone's going to die eventually. (cept me.) I think it needs to be a bit more specific. :)

This is referring to what portion of the population dies EACH YEAR.

Enjoy your immortality.
