4. Monaco is in the Post-Industrial stage of demographic transition. This serves true because the birth and death rates are the same but they are also relatively low. 5. It's not really working to shift transition since Monaco is already in the post-industrial stage. However, not everyone takes advantage of the free family planning, so it could relate to birth rates that are about the same as the death rates. 6. Abortion in Monaco is only allowed if the pregnancy if a health risk to the mother or if the child has severe handicaps or an incurable disease. Also, there are plenty of family planning centers in Monaco that educate people about having families and they also provide the people with free services. Family planning could relate to the lower birth rates in the country.
