Stunning numbers. The citizens of large countries are rapidly disappearing, and it’s not because of a war or a plague. It is an unprecedented loss in population:
South Korea is quietly living through something no society has ever survived: a 96% population collapse in just four generations — with zero war, zero plague, zero famine. 100 people today → 25 children → 6 grandchildren → 4 great-grandchildren. That’s it. Game over for an entire nation by ~2125 if fertility stays where it is (0.68–0.72). . . . Japan, Taiwan, Italy, Spain, Singapore, Hong Kong, Poland, Greece — all following the same curve, just 10–20 years behind.
