List of countries by birth rate

Countries by birth rate in 2008

This article includes two versions of the lists of countries, built depending on the total fertility rate . The total fertility rate is the number of births for a given period, divided by the total number of person-years lived by the population during this period. The coefficient is expressed as the number of births per 1000 population.

The first list is based on a five-year assessment and projections by the United Nations Population Division ^[1] . The figures relate to the period 2005-2010 and are calculated according to the average version of the forecast. The average birth rate for the whole world is estimated at 20.3 births per 1000 population.

The second list is based on data from the CIA World Fact Book 2009 ^[2] .
