Ethnic Groups In Germany
The demography of Germany is monitored by the ''Statistisches Bundesamt'' (Federal Statistical Office of Germany). According to the most recent data, Germany's population is 84,079,811 (30 June 2022) making it the most populous country in the European Union, and the nineteenth-most populous country in the world. The total fertility rate was rated at 1.58 in 2021, which is far below the replacement rate of 2.1. For a long time Germany had one of the world's lowest fertility rates of around 1.3 to 1.4 however there has been a small increase in recent years. Due to the low birth rate there have been more deaths than births in Germany in every year since 1972, which means 2021 was the 50th consecutive year the German population would have decreased without immigration. But due to immigration the population has actually increased during the last half-century: in 2019 the number of people with a foreign background was 26%. Under this category there are counted foreigners, naturalize ...

Emigration From Uruguay
Emigration from Uruguay is a migratory phenomenon that has been taking place in Uruguay since the early 20th century. Overview Emigration from Uruguay began tentatively about a century ago, but experienced a significant increase since the 1960s. Successive economic crises (notably in 1982 and 2002), plus the small size of the country's economy and population, were decisive factors that pushed thousands of Uruguayans out of their country of birth; economic migrants traveled primarily to other Spanish-speaking countries with bigger economies. As Uruguay has a relatively well-developed educational system and free access to the University of the Republic, many Uruguayan professional graduates and scholars found their country too small to achieve their own goals, which resulted in a brain drain. The 12-year-long military dictatorship that ruled from 1973 to 1985 also forced many Uruguayans to go into exile due to ideological differences and political persecution, in the context o ...
