The country is divided into three main geographical areas from north to south: Luzon, Visayas and Mindanao. The capital city, Manila, is located in Luzon, while the country's most populous city is Quezon City. Both cities, together with other 15 cities and municipalities, form part of Metropolitan Manila (Metro Manila), known as the National Capital Region. Metro Manila is the most densely populated region in the country with 13 million people living in an area of 620 square kilometres. The official languages are Filipino and English, and the major religion is Christianity. The Philippines is the second most populous nation in ASEAN (Association of South-East Asian Nations) after Indonesia. The country's population is forecast to grow to 145 million by 2045, making it the 10th most populous nation in the world. Although rates of population growth, currently at 1.6 per cent per year, are expected to decline in concomitance with growing urbanisation, and the population is slowly ageing, the current fertility rate in the Philippines remains one of the highest in East Asia, and the population aged 60 and older still account for a small fraction (6.2 per cent). Over 30 per cent of the population is below 15 years of age, and the Philippines are projected to have the most significant growth in its university-age population (20-24-year olds) compared to other ASEAN countries (including Malaysia, Thailand, Indonesia and Thailand).
