Eagleamn, why did you undo my change regarding the percentages of Sunni and Shi'a?
The State Department's [International Religious Freedom Report 2004] (2nd external link in the page) has the following relevant information:
its population is approximately 24 million, with an estimated foreign population of 6 to 7 million.
Approximately 2 million citizens are Shi'a Muslims
Now 2 million out of 18 million is 11%. So 11% of Saudis are Shi'a and the rest (89%) are Sunnis.
[edit] Sex ratio
Does anyone know why there are so many more males than females? -- Charlie (Colorado) 16:09, 24 March 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Population Pyramid
Do the population pyramid and sex ratios include only Saudi nationals, or does it include foreign workers as well? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 192.147.68.236 (talk) 20:08, 13 May 2008 (UTC)
