In India, the divorce rate is less than 1 per cent!

By India Today Web Desk: As marriages continue to get less popular, divorce rates are increasing across the world. Though marriage is dependent on religion, family, culture, an individual behaviour, location, it is currently a stubborn global issue. It might be merely a coincidence only, but developed countries face higher rates of divorce than developing countries. Fact: The global divorce rate has increased upto 251.8 % since 1960. Every year, world organizations such as the UN record global divorce rates. According to recorded data, the marriage and divorce statistics are dramatically changing due to a number of poignant factors. Most common reasons include:

Incompatibility

Infidelity

Drug/alcohol addiction

Physical/mental abuse

According to the studies, these countries have the lowest divorce rates in the world:

1. India 1 per cent

In India, the divorce rate is less than 1 per cent. Out of 1000 marriages, only 13 result in divorce. The low divorce rate owes upto the society pressure, arranged marriages usually take place over months between two families and not individuals. If someone asks for divorce, they're usually shamed for going against the rules and parents.

2. Chile: 3 per cent

As seen in India, divorce is a subject that's frowned upon by Chileans.

3. Colombia: 9 per cent

The numbers are proof that contrary to the popular belief, Colombian couples are doing a great job and maintaining their family life and respecting their vows.

4. Mexico: 15 per cent

Mexico is a country where divorce is granted quicker than in the United States;l thus, the number is quite shocking. Couples don't usually go for divorces due to extreme respect for the catholic church.

5. Turkey: 22 per cent

The number of married couples in Turkey is measured by crude marriage rate, which is simply the total of marriages within a given geographical area. In the case of Turkish people, only 1.46 for every 1,000 marriages tend to resort to divorce. Have a look at the countries with the highest divorce rates in the world:

1. Luxembourg: 87 per cent

With a population of approximately 500,000, Luxembourg is actually one of the smallest countries in Europe. It boasts an advanced economy and high purchasing power parity. It's also one of the states in Europe with the highest population growth rate. And right now, it's also the top country with the highest divorce rate in the world.

2. Spain: 65 per cent

The number is quite surprising due to a popular belief in Catholicism in the country. There might be several reasons, mostly unknown but it can also be the financial difficulty the country has been facing in past few years.

3. France: 55 per cent

It is very ironical that Paris, the country's romance capital, has the highest number of divorces filed in all of France, having a crude divorce rate of 1.9 per 1000 resident population.

4. Russia: 51 per cent

Do you know a marriage fails every second in Russia? Research states that one-third of marriages fail in the first five years. In the next five years, a quarter of marriages come to a conclusion. The divorce rate gradually falls by half in the forthcoming five years and further decreases as couples stay together longer.

5. United States: 46 per cent

The grounds for divorce in the United States are classified into two: at-fault and no-fault. At-fault divorces used to be the only way to put marriage into an end; and if the couple had differences, this prevents both of them from marrying another person legally. However, fault divorces can be avoided with certain defenses. No-fault divorces, on the other hand, requires no allegation or putting the blame on either party. Common reasons that fall under no-fault category include irreconcilable differences, incompatibility, and unavoidable breakdown of marriage.
