Population Change in the Baltic Sea Region (2002–2008, 2009–2015)

Q1. (2 points) Between 2002–2008 and 2009–2015, identify one region where the population trend clearly reversed. Explain the most likely human or physical factors behind this reversal.
Q2. (2 points) Using both maps, evaluate whether population decline in the Baltic States is driven more by rural depopulation, ageing, or migration toward capital cities. Support your reasoning with specific map evidence.
Q3. (2 points) Choose one country. Based on the spatial distribution of change, propose two policy actions that would realistically help stabilize population numbers in its declining regions. Explain why each action fits the spatial pattern.
Q4. (2 points) Select two neighboring regions located across a national border. Compare their population trajectories and evaluate how differences in economic structure, labour mobility, or national policies might explain the contrast.
Q5. (2 points)Identify one region experiencing strong growth and one showing deep decline. Compare them and analyze which geographic, economic, or demographic characteristics likely produce such opposite outcomes.
