What the data shows
Computed with the same code as the observations under the main chart and in the API (get_insights). Moving together in time does not prove a cause.
How the indicators changed
- Fertility (TFR): 5.26 in 1950 → 1.45 in 2023 (−72%). Thresholds: below 2.1 since 1999, below 1.5 since 2019. The trend broke around 1959 and 1982: −0.05 → −0.11 → −0.02 a year.
- Births: 0.06k in 1950 → 0.39k in 2023 (×7). Peak: 0.69k in 1995; the latest value is 43% lower. The trend broke around 1972 and 1992: +0.01k → +0.02k → −0.01k a year.
- Population: 1.45k in 1950 → 42.8k in 2023 (×29). The trend broke around 1978 and 1991: +0.33k → +1.48k → +0.37k a year.
- Urban share: 100% in 1960 → 100% in 2025 (0 pp).
- GDP per person (PPP): 50,981 PPP dollars in 2009 → 48,273 PPP dollars in 2025 (−5%). Peak: 53,786 PPP dollars in 2011; the latest value is 10% lower.
- Net migration: on average 0.08k a year in the 1950s, 0.27k a year in the 1960s, 0.38k a year in the 1970s, 1.12k a year in the 1980s, −0.15k a year in the 1990s, −0.04k a year in the 2000s, 0.46k a year in the 2010s, 0.54k a year in the 2020s.
- Life expectancy, men: 60.5 years in 1950 → 73.7 years in 2023 (+13 years). Threshold: above 70 years since 1983. The trend broke around 1975 and 1981: +0.41 → −0.21 → +0.08 a year.
What changed at the same time
- The fastest decline of "Fertility (TFR)" was in 1963–1973: 4.47 → 3.11. Over the same years: births 0.1k → 0.21k; population 3.58k → 7.92k; urban share 100% → 100%; net migration 0.26k a year → 0.38k a year; life expectancy, men 66.2 years → 70.7 years; no data for the others in those years.
- Over the last 10 years (2013–2023): fertility (TFR) 1.89 → 1.45; births 0.49k → 0.39k; population 35.9k → 42.8k; urban share 100% → 100%; GDP per person (PPP) 52,801 PPP dollars → 46,571 PPP dollars; net migration 0.53k a year → 0.57k a year; life expectancy, men 72.5 years → 73.7 years.
How the indicators relate
- Fertility (TFR) and GDP per person (PPP) (2009–2023, 15 years): levels are strongly related, in the same direction (r = 0.88); year-to-year changes show no reliable link (r = 0.35). This looks like a shared trend: both change over time, but not in step from year to year.
Against other countries
- Fertility (TFR), adjusted for income: countries with the same GDP per person (46,570 PPP dollars) typically have 1.46; here it is 1.45, about the same as most countries at this income (2023, 197 countries).
- Order of events: urban majority: already in 1960; fertility below 3: 1975; fertility below 2.1: 1987. Fertility fell below 3 after the urban share passed 50% in 69% of 111 countries where the order is known; median gap 9 years.
Forecasts vs actual
- Fertility (TFR): past UN projections. The outcome was below the projection in 1 of 1 revisions (2022–2022) and above in none; median gap −7.5%.
- Fertility (TFR): UN 2024 projection (medium): 2050 — 1.46 (+1% vs 2023), 2100 — 1.53 (+6% vs 2023); low variant for 2100: 1.03.
- Births: past UN projections. The outcome was below the projection in 1 of 1 revisions (2022–2022) and above in none; median gap −0.8%.
- The UN 2022 projection expected this level (0.39k) already around 2022: reality is 1 year behind it.
- Births: UN 2024 projection (medium): 2050 — 0.42k (+7% vs 2023), 2100 — 0.32k (−18% vs 2023); low variant for 2100: 0.12k.
- Population: past UN projections. The outcome was below the projection in 5 of 5 revisions (2012–2022) and above in none; median gap −3.3%.
- The UN 2015 projection expected this level (42.8k) already around 2022: reality is 1 year behind it.
- The UN 2017 projection expected this level (42.8k) already around 2022: reality is 1 year behind it.
- Population: UN 2024 projection (medium): 2050 — 51k (+19% vs 2023), 2100 — 42.3k (−1% vs 2023); low variant for 2100: 29.4k.
- Why the UN missed the population. The 2022 projection for 2023: 44.2k; the UN's 2024 estimate: 42.8k (−3.3%). Parts of the gap (plus means more people than projected): the starting population −2.5k, births +0.1k, deaths 0 (fewer deaths than expected), migration +1k; the largest: the starting population.
- Net migration: UN 2024 projection (medium): 2030 — 0.45k a year, 2050 — 0.27k a year, 2100 — 0.01k a year.
- Life expectancy, men: UN 2024 projection (medium): 2030 — 74.8 years, 2050 — 78.2 years, 2100 — 85.4 years.
UN projections vs actual
Solid line: actual data, UN WPP 2024 estimates; births and fertility from national statistics from the last year they matched the UN estimate (the UN's figures for the latest years are partly its own projection). Dashed: medium variants of past UN revisions. The table shows what each revision expected for the latest year (or five-year period) with actual data.

Incidence of tuberculosis (per 100,000 people)
6.9 per 100,000 people latest value, 2024
Incidence of tuberculosis is the estimated number of new and relapse tuberculosis cases arising in a given year, expressed as the rate per 100,000 population. All forms of TB are included, including cases in people living with HIV. Estimates for all years are recalculated as new information becomes available and techniques are refined, so they may differ from those published previously.
Culture and time
International tourism, receipts (current US$)
243,000,000 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
1,952,000 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.
Everyday environment
Access to electricity (% of population)
100 % of population latest value, 2024
Access to electricity is the percentage of population with access to electricity. Electrification data are collected from industry, national surveys and international sources.

Markets and valuations
Bank nonperforming loans
11.2 % of gross loans latest value, 2022
Loans 90+ days overdue or unlikely to be repaid in full divided by gross loans, before provisions and collateral deductions. National rules and coverage can differ. Source definition: The indicator measures the proportion of a deposit taker’s loan portfolio that is impaired or at risk of default. It is calculated as the ratio of non-performing loans (NPLs) to total gross loans, where NPLs are defined as loans that are past due by 90 days or more or are otherwise considered unlikely to be repaid in full without the realization of collateral. Both non-performing loans and total gross loans should be reported at their gross book value, without deducting for loan-loss provisions or collateral. This indicator provides a key measure of asset quality and potential credit risk in the banking system.
Industry and waste
Manufacturing, share of GDP
1.2 % of GDP latest value, 2021
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
6 % of GDP latest value, 2021
Value added of industry in the broad sense (mining, manufacturing, utilities and construction; ISIC B-F) as a percentage of GDP. World Bank, WDI. Source note: Industry (including construction) corresponds to ISIC (Rev.4) divisions 05-43. It is comprised of mining, manufacturing, construction, electricity, water, and gas industries. 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.
Manufacturing value added per person
861 constant 2015 US$ per person latest value, 2021
Manufacturing value added at constant 2015 US dollars divided by population (UN WPP 2024): factory output net of inputs, not revenue. 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 in constant prices, meaning the series has been adjusted to account for price changes over time. The reference year for this adjustment is 2015. This indicator is expressed in United States dollars.
Manufacturing value added per person (UNIDO)
418 constant 2020 US$ per person latest value, 2025
Manufacturing value added (ISIC section C) per person at constant 2020 US dollars. UNIDO National Accounts Database via the UN SDG database (indicator 9.2.1).
