I want to see a map showing the percentage of people living at each year of age.

Found this as well, while looking for something else.

We do have lower life expectancy, but arguably for reasons that don't implicate our health care system. We have more crime and drive much more, e.g. Follow the links here to see research that indicates that when you adjust for those two factors alone the US has the world''s longest LE.

And this does not take account of high US obesity, which perhaps only tangentially implicates the health care system. While I don't have data handy, you might also want to look into the heroic efforts the US makes to save premature infants. This means that many stillbirths in Europe are infant mortality here, which drives up our IM rates and lowers our LE, but for noble reasons.

I want a graph showing the number of people living at age 1, then, each succeeding year, the number would drop according to the number remaining alive. It would show the ages at which most die off.

Hmmmm.....

Good idea. Let's see what's out there.

Here's a good article covering England & Wales.
What do people die of? Mortality rates and data for every cause of death in 2011 visualised

CDC WONDER online databases utilize a rich ad-hoc query system for the analysis of public health data
