In stage 2 of the demographic transition model, high birth rates are often attributed to limited access to contraception, cultural norms favoring large families, and the economic reliance on children for labor. Meanwhile, high death rates can be linked to inadequate healthcare, poor sanitation, and prevalent Infectious Diseases, which are common in developing regions. As improvements in healthcare and living conditions begin to take effect, death rates typically start to decline, while birth rates may remain high for a time.
The proper sequence in the demographic transition model is: Stage 1 - high birth and death rates, Stage 2 - high birth rates and declining death rates, Stage 3 - declining birth rates and low death rates, Stage 4 - low birth and death rates, and some scholars also recognize a Stage 5 with very low birth and death rates.
The Demographic Transition Model (DTM) has four stages: Stage 1 (high birth and death rates), Stage 2 (high birth rates and decreasing death rates), Stage 3 (decreasing birth and death rates), and Stage 4 (low birth and death rates). Some models include a hypothetical Stage 5 with very low birth rates and an aging population.
Stage 1: High birth and death rates, leading to a stable population. Stage 2: High birth rates and decreasing death rates, resulting in rapid population growth. Stage 3: Declining birth and death rates, leading to a slowing population growth. Stage 4: Low birth and death rates, resulting in a stable or declining population.

Because they are stupid
Yes, in the first stage of the demographic transition, both birth rates and death rates are high, resulting in a stable population size. This is typically seen in pre-industrial societies where high birth rates compensate for high death rates, leading to minimal population growth.
The United States and the United Kingdom are both in stages of demographic transition. For both countries, an influx of immigrants have changed the culture.
culture and belief in having a son is better than having daughters are reasons for high birth rate. good health care service and technology are reasons for low death rate.
Uruguay is on in Stage 3 of the demographic transition model due to its declining birth and death rates. It does still have a relatively high birth rate, which makes it not eligible to be in stage 4.
That birth rates vary from country to country, is a relatively new phenomenon. The reason why there are different birth rates is that the countries are in a different state of the so called 'demographic transition'. It usually has 4 stages which a country passes: Stage 1: High birth and high death rate (all countries before industrial revolution) Stage 2: High birth and falling death rate (some African countries) Stage 3: falling birth rate and low death rate (most of the developing countries) Stage 4: low birth rate and low death rate (developed countries) The birth rates fall because there's no need for children as workers anymore. Countries in stage 1 and 2 are rural societies that demand child labor in the fields. The people have also to compensate the high infant mortality rate. In stage 3 lesser and lesser people work in agriculture and children are no longer an economic benefit but a burden for the parents. There's also much divergence in the birth rate in stage 4 countries. Most of the developed countries will go to the Stage 5 of the transition, with a death rate higher than the birth rate. Only two developed countries will not: USA and Israel. This has cultural reasons.
Countries in the first stage of demographic transition have high birth rates and high death rates, leading to a stable or slow-growing population. These countries typically have limited access to healthcare and education, resulting in shorter life expectancy.
Austria is in Stage 5 of the demographic transition model. This stage is characterized by low birth rates, low death rates, and an aging population due to high life expectancy.
