The State Statistics Committee of Azerbaijan Republic (which is Azərbaycan Respublikası Dövlət Statistika Komitəsi in Azerbaijani) is a government office in Azerbaijan. It is part of the country's Cabinet, which is like the main group of government leaders. This committee is in charge of gathering, organizing, and sharing important numbers, also known as statistics. These numbers tell us about the country's money (economy), its people (demographics), and many other areas in the Republic of Azerbaijan.

The State Statistics Committee was started on February 18, 1994. It was created by the President of Azerbaijan at that time, Heydar Aliyev. Its main office is located in Baku, which is the capital city of Azerbaijan.

What the Committee Does

The main job of the State Statistics Committee is to collect and share facts and figures about Azerbaijan. Think of it like a big data collector for the whole country. They gather information on many different things.

Collecting Important Numbers

The committee collects numbers on how many people live in Azerbaijan. They also track how the country's money is doing. This includes things like how much stuff is being made and sold. They also look at how many people have jobs.

Sharing Information

Once they collect all this information, they organize it. Then, they share it with the public. This helps people understand what is happening in Azerbaijan. It also helps the government make good decisions for the country.

Why Statistics Are Important

Statistics are super important for many reasons. They help us see how things are changing over time. For example, we can see if more people are going to school or if the economy is growing.

Helping the Government

The government uses these numbers to plan for the future. If they know how many children are born each year, they can plan for enough schools. If they know how many people are working, they can make plans to create more jobs.

Helping Everyone Else

Businesses use statistics to decide where to open new stores. Researchers use them to study society. Even regular people can use these numbers to learn more about their country. The State Statistics Committee makes sure this information is available to everyone.
