Kirlawa's foremost demographic change over the past fifty years, has been a surge in secularism and atheism, at the expense of traditionally predominant Hosianism.
Religion has lost considerable influence among Kirlawa's current generations, as was shown in two polls published in 3042:

In response to this significant shift in beliefs, it appears likely that a new political party might soon be formed ... or perhaps one from the distant past revived.

Meanwhile, our neighbour Dorvik had formerly had a Nordic majority, but in recent years has been growing steadily more German and Russian instead. Some of the old Nordic families of Dorvik have moved just across the border, into Uwakah in our nation.

All other changes compared to a half-century ago are minor, and are pretty much just a continuation of previous trends.


============


Revised 30 April 2012, to comply with the new names for the religions.
http://forum.particracy.net/viewtopic.php?p=37476#p37476
"Hosians" = Christians. "Luthorian" = Protestant. (specifically Lutheran, but Kirlawa's Protestantism came from Luthori anyway)
"Bishopal" = Catholics (the page says to use "Patriarchal", but I feel that that name very strongly connotes Orthodox, not Catholic.)
"Selucian" = Selucian Catholic. "Veritan" = Veritan Catholic.
"Deanism" = Buddhism.
I am assuming that using the names of Particracy locations (Luthori, Selucia, Veritas, Terra) is still OK.


============


Revised and sent to vote 31 August 2015, for archiving.
Fixed the spelling of "Daenism" and of "Kerissian".
"Bishopal" now refers to Anglican or Episcopalian, not Catholic;
in accordance with http://classic.particracy.net/viewbill.php?billid=346816
I've re-renamed our Catholics to "Universal", to hopefully avoid misunderstandings regarding the term "Bishopal". They're currently (3900) the Aurorian Church, but of course that didn't exist in 3050.
