What changed at the same time
- The fastest decline of "Fertility (TFR)" was in 1960–1970: 4.57 → 2.97. Over the same years: births 1.76k → 1.41k; population 54.9k → 59k; urban share 59% → 62.4%; net migration −0.79k a year → −1.19k a year; life expectancy, men 60.7 years → 63.7 years; no data for the others in those years.
- Over the last 10 years (2013–2023): fertility (TFR) 1.94 → 1.60; births 1.26k → 1.02k; population 103k → 108k; internet 78.9% (2013); urban share 63.6% → 61.8%; GDP per person (PPP) 35,712 PPP dollars → 42,783 PPP dollars; GDP growth 7.1% → 8.9%; inflation −2.4% → 3.4%; net migration 0.32k a year → 0.15k a year; life expectancy, men 72 years → 73.7 years.
How the indicators relate
- Fertility (TFR) and internet (1990–2017, 21 years): levels are barely related (r = −0.32); year-to-year changes show no reliable link (r = −0.03).
- Fertility (TFR) and urban share (1960–2023, 64 years): levels are noticeably related, in opposite directions (r = −0.67); year-to-year changes show no reliable link (r = −0.48).
- Fertility (TFR) and GDP per person (PPP) (1990–2023, 34 years): levels are noticeably related, in opposite directions (r = −0.50); year-to-year changes show no reliable link (r = 0.01).
Against other countries
- Fertility (TFR), adjusted for income: countries with the same GDP per person (42,780 PPP dollars) typically have 1.50; here it is 1.60, about the same as most countries at this income (2023, 197 countries).
- Order of events: urban majority: already in 1960; fertility below 3: 1970; fertility below 2.1: 1998; half the population online: 2008. Fertility fell below 3 after the urban share passed 50% in 69% of 111 countries where the order is known; median gap 9 years. Fertility fell below 2.1 before half the population went online in 88% of 112 countries where the order is known.
Forecasts vs actual
- Fertility (TFR): past UN projections. The outcome was below the projection in 3 of 7 revisions (2006–2022) and above in 4; median gap +6.6%.
- Fertility (TFR): UN 2024 projection (medium): 2050 — 1.62 (+1% vs 2023), 2100 — 1.64 (+2% vs 2023); low variant for 2100: 1.14.
- Births: past UN projections. The outcome was below the projection in 3 of 7 revisions (2006–2022) and above in 3; median gap 0%.
- The UN 2008 projection did not expect today's level (1.02k, 2023) before its horizon ended (2050).
- The UN 2010 projection expected today's level (1.02k, 2023) only after 2050: reality is at least 27 years ahead of it.
- Births: UN 2024 projection (medium): 2050 — 0.91k (−11% vs 2023), 2100 — 0.62k (−39% vs 2023); low variant for 2100: 0.21k.
- Population: past UN projections. The outcome was below the projection in 7 of 12 revisions (1998–2022) and above in 5; median gap −0.8%.
- The UN 1998 projection expected this level (108k) already around 2001: reality is 22 years behind it.

- Population: UN 2024 projection (medium): 2050 — 100k (−7% vs 2023), 2100 — 75.2k (−30% vs 2023); low variant for 2100: 49.3k.
- Why the UN missed the population. The 2006 projection for 2023: 107k; the UN's 2024 estimate: 108k (+1%). Parts of the gap (plus means more people than projected): the starting population −8.7k, births −1.9k, deaths +0.5k (fewer deaths than expected), migration +11.2k; the largest: migration.
- Why the UN missed the population. The 2010 projection for 2023: 111k; the UN's 2024 estimate: 108k (−3%).

International tourism, receipts (current US$)
1,077,000,000 current US dollars latest value, 2020
International tourism receipts are expenditures by international inbound visitors, including payments to national carriers for international transport. These receipts include any other prepayment made for goods or services received in the destination country. They also may include receipts from same-day visitors, except when these are important enough to justify separate classification. For some countries they do not include receipts for passenger transport items. Data are in current U.S. dollars.
International tourism, number of arrivals
1,951,000 arrivals per year latest value, 2019
International inbound tourists (overnight visitors) are the number of tourists who travel to a country other than that in which they have their usual residence, but outside their usual environment, for a period not exceeding 12 months and whose main purpose in visiting is other than an activity remunerated from within the country visited. When data on number of tourists are not available, the number of visitors, which includes tourists, same-day visitors, cruise passengers, and crew members, is shown instead. Sources and collection methods for arrivals differ across countries. In some cases data are from border statistics (police, immigration, and the like) and supplemented by border surveys. In other cases data are from tourism accommodation establishments. For some countries number of arrivals is limited to arrivals by air and for others to arrivals staying in hotels. Some countries include arrivals of nationals residing abroad while others do not. Caution should thus be used in comparing arrivals across countries. The data on inbound tourists refer to the number of arrivals, not to the number of people traveling. Thus a person who makes several trips to a country during a given period is counted each time as a new arrival.

Land under permanent crops is land cultivated with crops that occupy the land for long periods and need not be replanted after each harvest, such as cocoa, coffee, and rubber. This category includes land under flowering shrubs, fruit trees, nut trees, and vines, but excludes land under trees grown for wood or timber. Permanent pasture is land used for five or more years for forage, including natural and cultivated crops.

For the purpose of data dissemination, FAO has adopted the concept of a calendar year (January to December). Some countries compile fertilizer data on a calendar year basis, while others are on a split-year basis. Arable land includes land defined by the FAO as land under temporary crops (double-cropped areas are counted once), temporary meadows for mowing or for pasture, land under market or kitchen gardens, and land temporarily fallow. Land abandoned as a result of shifting cultivation is excluded.

Private-sector credit / GDP
58.05 % of GDP latest value, 2023
Financial resources supplied to the private sector by financial corporations relative to GDP. Includes loans and other debt claims; country coverage differs. Neither government debt nor mortgages alone. Source definition: Domestic credit to private sector refers to financial resources provided to the private sector by financial corporations, such as through loans, purchases of nonequity securities, and trade credits and other accounts receivable, that establish a claim for repayment. For some countries these claims include credit to public enterprises. The financial corporations include monetary authorities and deposit money banks, as well as other financial corporations where data are available (including corporations that do not accept transferable deposits but do incur such liabilities as time and savings deposits). Examples of other financial corporations are finance and leasing companies, money lenders, insurance corporations, pension funds, and foreign exchange companies. This indicator is expressed as a percentage of Gross Domestic Product (GDP) which is the total income earned through the production of goods and services in an economic territory during an accounting period.
Industry and waste
Manufacturing, share of GDP
2.4 % of GDP latest value, 2023
Manufacturing value added (ISIC section C: factories, excluding mining, utilities and construction) as a percentage of GDP. The share can fall while output grows if the rest of the economy grows faster. World Bank, WDI. Source note: Manufacturing includes industries classified in ISIC (Rev. 3) major division C and is defined as the physical or chemical transformation of materials or components into new products. Value added is the contribution to the economy by a producer or an industry or an institutional sector, which is estimated by the total value of output produced and deducting the total value of intermediate consumption of goods and services used to produce that output. This indicator is expressed as a percentage of Gross Domestic Product (GDP) which is the total income earned through the production of goods and services in an economic territory during an accounting period.
Industry incl. construction, share of GDP
10.8 % of GDP latest value, 2023
