Hayley asked:


I have been looking for a while online and can’t seem to find a reliable website from 2007 or later with worldwide divorce rates, specifically the US and India.

I am doing a Sociology paper and need these statistics.
Don’t answer unless you can cite with a .gov or other reliable source.

Thank you!

   In the United States, 52% of marriages end in divorce. 70% of those divorces are due to infedelity.

   I have NO idea about India. I’m sure it’s much lower.

   I didn’t know about the exact stats but the fact I know is this:

   India has world record of least divorces.

   USA has world record of highest divorce rate.

   So both are at extreme edge.
