Youth Demographics are the Key to the Dictator Revolutions

"Uganda’s population has grown from 15m in 1986 to 32m today, half under 16 years old. Youth unemployment is 80%."

From The Economist blog Baobab writing about President Yoweri Museveni of Uganda's 25th anniversary of power under the title of Rambo's 25th anniversary.

Any country with youth demographic statistics such as these and youth unemployment levels at similar levels needs to watch out.
