Additionally, far more children of divorced parents lived with a female single parent, rather than a male single parent.

In the United States, as in most other countries, it is a legal process in which a judge or another legal authority dissolves the bonds of matrimony existing between two persons. The process of divorce also normally involves issues surrounding distribution of property, financial support of the former spouse, child custody and child support. A divorce also allows a person to marry again.In the United States, divorce is, like marriage, a matter for state governments, not the federal government. Although divorce laws vary from state to state, for example on which terms a divorce can be arranged, a divorce must be certified by a court of law to become effective.

According to the 2020 UNIDOMO questionnaire, Portugal clearly led the list of European countries with the highest divorce rate per 100 marriages. With 91.5 divorces the Portuguese Republic led the list, followed by Spain and Luxembourg. All three countries boast a significantly higher share than the other European countries, each reporting a divorce rate over 80 divorces.

A different way to look at Portugal

While Portugal clearly has the most divorces per 100 marriages, looking at divorce rates per 1.000 inhabitants in other European countries alters the picture of the country as one unsettled by significant numbers of divorces. With nearly 1.7 divorces per 1,000 inhabitants Portugal has roughly the same divorce rate as Germany and the Netherlands. Interesting is furthermore that although marriages in Portugal tend to result in divorce lightly more often as in Luxembourg (80.3%), the Grand Duchy of Luxembourg experienced a 0.6 point higher divorce rate.

What about the rest of the World?

While compared with Latin American countries like Guatemala or Peru, ranked among the countries with the lowest divorce rates in the world, Luxembourg’s divorce rate seems excessive. However, when compared with divorce rates (per 1.000 inhabitants) of countries like the United States (2.7) or China (3.5) divorce rates from Luxembourg and Europe are not out of the ordinary.

Divorce rate in Asian countries The divorce rate in China soared from around **** divorces per 1,000 people in 2000 to **** divorces in 2019. This is a quite high value compared to the divorce rate of countries in the Asia Pacific region. However, China shares the fate of a growing divorce rate with many other developing countries, while in most developed countries, the number of divorces per 1,000 inhabitants is either stable or falling. For example, the divorce rate in Singapore has been manly stable at *** divorces per 1,000 inhabitants in the last ten years and the divorce rate in South Korea has fallen from *** in 2009 to *** in 2023. In comparison, the U.S. divorce rate has been falling since 1992 from *** divorces per 1,000 people to *** divorces in 2022. Dating scene in China For the younger generations, dating and marriage happens (if at all) at a much later life stage compared to their parents.

Description:

Explore a dataset that brings to light the intricate patterns of divorces across Bulgaria's diverse landscapes. Originally derived from the National Statistical Institute of Bulgaria, this collection has been meticulously refined to provide a clear, detailed perspective on marital dissolutions by region and residence type. It's a tool designed for researchers, policymakers, and anyone interested in the societal dynamics of Bulgaria.

DataTransformation:

I made some data transformation, so the dataset would be easier to use for you guys:

• Renaming Columns: I replaced cryptic labels with clear, descriptive titles. 'Updates' now reads as 'revision_number', instantly clarifying its role in tracking data versions.
• Decoding Regions: EKATTE codes were deciphered into their actual English names, offering immediate geographic context.
• Residence Reimagined: I transformed numerical codes into descriptive categories - 'Total', 'City/Urban', and 'Rural' - painting a clearer picture of each record's residential backdrop.
• Pruning the Excess: Columns that added little value were removed, focusing your attention on the most insightful data.

Inside the Dataset:

• revision_number: Tracks the version of each record, reflecting updates or changes.
• date: Indicates the year of the data entry.
• region: Names the specific Bulgarian region for each record.
• region_code: Retains the original EKATTE code for reference.
• Residence: Categorizes the residence setting as 'Total', 'City/Urban', or 'Rural'.
• divorce_count: Quantifies the number of divorces.
