Be interesting to see a chart with Russia’s population decline since post-Soviet breakup.

I thought the birth rate picked up the last few years.

That includes the 20-25% muslim population thats having from 3 to 10 kids depending on the specific ethnic group....

It’s either picked up or leveled off over the past couple of years, but the working age population has to be much smaller today than in the late 1990s.
