The demographic indicators in Eastern Europe, give off a strong economy look to all the countries included in it. Although, the majority of the countries are pretty wealthy, some of them are not at that level development, like others. The birth rate is quite low, which one can infer that the women have an ample amount of opportunities. On the other hand, the death rate is exactly the same number as the birth rate, which could be, that they cancel out on each other. There isn’t any loss in population, but there isn’t any growth. Which explains why the rate of natural increase is so low. Also, the literacy rate is high, which means the majority of the people have some sort of education. No growth in the economy can be a factor of a steady economy. Economic development may be occurring at a substantial pace.
