What is interesting is that you think by 1918, there is an excellent registration but that is not the case. No information of high quality calibrate where we can do research. Life table has many functions: 1) called life expectancy (ex). We start off with a hypothetical cohort born in a year (1918) then people begin to die. Every year it passes from reference point and people die. After 100 years no one is left and lx is 0. Gradual lost due to deaths and that reduction occurs with mortality. Above red line is the force of mortality. Below are the survivors at a given point in time. Tells about how much mortality is occurring and how rapid the decline is.
