The One-Child Policy was instituted in 1979 in China as an effort to curb overpopulation. It restricted most Chinese couples to only having one child, with violations resulting in fines, lost employment opportunities, and in some cases forced abortions or sterilizations. The policy was relaxed in 2015, allowing couples to have two children if either parent was an only child themselves.
