Countries like India are troubled by the decreasing number of women. However, you may be surprised to know that there are some countries in the world where the number of men is decreasing.
Today we are going to talk about some countries of the world where the number of women is more than that of men. Here women are facing difficulty in finding men for marriage.
Armenia
The shortage of men in Armenia is primarily due to the effects of the Armenian Genocide during and after World War I. During Turkish-Ottoman rule, 1.5 million Armenians were mass-murdered and marched to their deaths in the Syrian desert.
Armenia has the highest percentage of women in the world at 55 percent. But the birth rate is still in favor of boys. Every year 110 boys are born here against 100 girls. There are many reasons for the shortage of men here. Armenia had to suffer a lot in the 20th century. The country did not benefit from the Soviet regime and wars with its neighbors. Armenia has the highest percentage of women in the world at 55 percent.
Ukraine
Ukraine, which is currently at war with Russia, has 54.40 percent women. But due to the war many men have lost their lives here. So the distance between the two will increase. Ukraine's male population has declined significantly since World War II and it has still not reached the level of 1941.
Belarus
Women make up 53.99 percent of the population in Belarus. This Eastern European country has had a dark history. The country was completely destroyed in World War II. More than a quarter of Belarus's entire population died during the fighting. The conflict had the highest per capita casualties. Belarus is one of Europe's poorest countries. The standard of living here is low and economic prospects are low. This is why the youth here are forced to migrate to the rest of Europe.
Latvia
In Latvia, women make up 53.57 percent of the population. This is a small country on the coast of the Baltic Sea. Men here have a habit of smoking and drinking a lot. This is why many types of cancer and heart disease are very common among men here. Male life expectancy in Latvia is 68 years, while female life expectancy is 10 years higher i.e. 78 years. The male suicide rate is also very high here.
Russia
There are 53.55 percent women in Russia. The effect of World War II is also being seen on Russia. In World War II, the Soviet Union suffered the heaviest losses than any other country. 27 million people were killed here. But the population here is less because men are very addicted to alcohol. The male population of Russia has to face many side effects due to smoking and alcohol.
lithuania
Women in Lithuania make up about 53.02 percent of the population. Like Latvia, smoking and alcohol addiction have ruined the lives of men. Men here are increasingly moving to Germany or England in search of a better life.
Georgia
It is a small country with a population of 37 lakhs. Here the female population is 52.98 percent and the male population is 47.02 percent. But the economy here has been ruined, so people from here go to other countries of the world. Due to which the population difference between women and men is increasing rapidly.
