Doesn’t matter. Italy is a dying country. Fertility rate in 2023 was 1.21.
Italy is unfortunately a part of a similar overarching trend in the western world. So not sure your point is as much a zinger as you hoped.

.

Germany, Italy, Spain, S Korea, etc are all past the point of no return. France actually has the best demographic picture in Western Europe ar like 1.7.

I’m very concerned about the US (1.66 in 2022) but there’s time to turn around or not.

I'm actually quite interested to see what happens to Japan and South Korea. They seem to be past the point of no return on the downslope of population demographics.
Can't help but wonder if after a really drastic decrease in population in the next 20 years will the youngin's start to feel a little elbow room and start having more kids. Still talking generations to turn around the issue.

I think both countries are hopeless.
It's not like cost of living is going to get any cheaper in either country for young people to encourage them procreate.
Costs on young workers to pay for the country being a retirement home will off set any lowered housing costs as folks die off.

Of all the things to reunite the Korean peninsula, plummeting fertility rates and population would be a hell of a way to get it done.
Those two countries aren't opening the gates like many other Western countries are for immigrants to prop up their economic growth.

I’m quite certain @DerekJohnson stands ready to impregnate the Korean Peninsula should that opportunity for foreigners ever present itself.

But like…what happens? DO they eventually just default on their debt? Then what? Cities will crumble because there won't be inhabitants, industries fail…Do they just get invaded by another country and repopulated by migration? Can't really think of a modern example of a 1st world county just completely collapsing.

We don’t really know. It’s the first time in modern history we’ve run this experiment. Either way it will be interesting.

From what I’m reading they’re not interested.
