    Honestly most countries that fails to bring their birthrate back to the early 90s level will be pushed out of relevancy in our lifetimes

      I doubt it. Birthrates across the world have been steadily going down. At the moment it’s mostly developing countries that have the highest birth rates but as their standards of living go up their birthrates will drop, it’s a well documented fact.

      You’re also discounting migration, people will migrate from countries with high birthrates to ones with lower ones and blunt the effects.

        If the country allows such migration, which seems to be increasingly used as a political tool for ideologies not all that well-rooted in reality.
