    While no country is the same, you might look at finland (independent) and the baltics (joined USSR in 1940) for a somewhat comparable shared modernization trend and the resulting improvements in life expectancy, the 1970s dip, etc.

      where do people go to learn this skill of filling empty air with words and not addressing the thing they’re ostensibly replying to in any way?

          Another completely incoherent reply in the context of the conversation. Zero actual interaction with anyone speaking with you.
