Bulgaria’s Population is Shrinking
保加利亚的人口正在减少
Bulgaria, a southeastern country in the European Union, is one of the world’s fastest shrinking countries. In the last forty years, the population of Bulgaria has fallen from 9 to 7 million. Young people often leave the country for postsecondary studies and do not return for several years. Approximately 1 million Bulgarians currently live abroad. Bulgarians are also having fewer children. Despite the shrinking population, some Bulgarians do return after realizing that they miss some aspects of home, including the culture and relaxed pace of living.
保加利亚是欧盟的东南部国家，是世界上人口减少最快的国家之一。在过去的40年里，保加利亚的人口从900万下降到了700万。年轻人经常出国深造，几年后才回国。目前大约有100万保加利亚人生活在国外。保加利亚人生孩子也越来越少。虽然人口在减少，但一些保加利亚人在意识到他们想念家乡的某些方面，包括文化和悠闲的生活节奏后，还是回到了保加利亚。
