| | Post-World War II baby boom - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
 | | In Canada, the baby boom is usually defined as the generation born from 1947 to 1966 – Canadian soldiers were repatriated later than American servicemen, and Canada's birthrate did not start to rise until 1947, and most Canadian demographers prefer to use the later date of 1966 as the boom's end in that country. |
| | As is often the case with a large war, the elation of victory and large numbers of males returning to their country triggered a baby boom after the end of World War II in many countries around the globe, notably those of Europe, Asia, North America and Australasia. |
| | The United Kingdom experienced a second baby boom during the 1960s, with a peak in births in 1964 and a third (smaller) one in the late 1980s. |
