Public-sector employment

Not available: no official public-sector employment series is loaded for Turkmenistan yet.

Healthcare fell from 1.9% to 0.6% of GDP between 2000 and 2008, then rose to 0.9% by 2023.

Education rose from 3.0% to 4.3% of GDP between 2012 and 2024.

Gross debt fell from 64.2% to 3.1% of GDP between 1997 and 2025.

Population grew from 4.2 million in 1995 to 7.6 million in 2025; the UN projects 9.6 million by 2050.

Every figure comes from official statistics: the national office's own COFOG submission (via Eurostat or the OECD) first, then the IMF, the World Bank and the UN. COFOG covers general government (central, state and local together). A dashed vertical mark on a line is a series break, where the source changes. Euro-area history is in euro-fixed terms.
