Facts About Russia You Never Knew Until Now

Battling Its Population

Unlike the rest of the world, Russia actually had to battle a REDUCTION in its population. To combat this decline, the Russian government created a ‘Day of Conception’ on September 12. From 2003, couples have the day off to work on building a family.

In the subsequent 16 years, there has been an increase in births in the month of June. In fact, young mothers who have children in June are often gifted with a tax break or even presented with items like cars or household products.
