      What’s driving the decline?
      Low birth rates, massive emigration, economic transitions, and — in some cases — war.

      Moldovan last census doesn’t include Transnistria, that’s why the numbers look very grim (however the situation is still pretty bad, even if we add 500k~ from Transnistria)

      Why did everyone leave latvia? Didn’t think they were in that bad of a state in 90s and 2000s

      Poland shouldn’t be green as it’s lost population, and Estonia should have a minus not a plus sign on the number.

      But Jesus that’s catastrophic for a lot of these countries.

    5. Russia has closer to 150m when counted with unrecognized lands (Crimea, Donbass, Zaporozhye, Kherson).

    6. Curious about Czechia, what made their numbers go up like this? Emigration from the east? I would have expected that they would rather go even further west to Germany etc.

      My country is the 3rd in terms of percentage loss yet there has been no war here.

      Fuck our government and me mentality.

      Since Poland is declining its color should be a very pale yellow, not green.

    9. The collapse of the USSRs effects were disastrous.

      Such a mis-managed turning point. Change was necessary to some extent, but Gorbachev really fumbled the ball and then Yeltsin murdered Russian democracy in it’s crib.

      many died when they changed to market capitalism. capitalism kills.

      Isn’t Latvia low due to excluding ethnic Russians from citizenship?

      How people could flee their homeland like this? -36% since 1991. War doesn’t explain everything. There are more reason people flee their own country. I am curious to know these reasons.

      Well, looking at these statistics, the Czechs could just populate all of Eastern Europe with themselves

      1991 is a ridiculous time to use for the Baltic states as immediately after the end of the Soviet occupation, a shitton of the illegal Soviet colonists returned to Russia. Compared to 1989, the number of ethnic Estonians is actually down only 4.5% and Estonia’s population has been in gradual growth for about a decade, bar a few odd years.

      Crazy that in about 100 years Europe went from a 1:3 population ratio with the rest of the planet to 1:11 today. It is not surprising that it has become massively less influential.

      Ukraine in war last 12 years… 20% of territory literally occupied by rusia…
