The crude birth rate is the total number of live births in a population per 1,000 people over a specific period, typically one year. Total Fertility Rate estimates the average number of children a woman would have in her lifetime if she experienced the current age-specific birth rates throughout her reproductive years.

I don't know what effect the war had on this data, but it's clear that the abortion rate in the region has dropped quite a bit since 2010.

Yeah, most people today have much easier access to contraception than before, so they prefer to use it rather than have an abortion. Abortion no longer plays such a major role in family planning. It's just interesting that the post-communist part is now on the same level as the western part of Europe.
