This is a demography of the population of Bermuda including population density, ethnicity, education level, health of the populace, economic status, religious affiliations and other aspects of the population, including changes in the demographic make-up of Bermuda over the centuries of its permanent settlement. History From settlement until the 19th century, the largest demographic group remained what in the United States is referred to as white-Anglo (or white Anglo-Saxon Protestant).

Spanish-speaking Blacks began to imm ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
