In the Republic of Tatarstan, the population increased annually, except for two periods: from 1920 to 1926 and from 1939 to 1959, due to unfavorable conditions after the crop failure and famine in 1921 and the aftermath of the Great Patriotic War. The growth of population in the Republic after 1970 is in no small part due to the construction of a number of large hydro and thermal power, petrochemical, and automotive facilities in Zainsk, Nizhnekamsk, and Shorey Chelny and the attraction of labor from many other regions. This indicator is also influenced in recent years by migration of population.
