In 2023, the birth rate in Ukraine decreased by a third from the pre-war level. According to the Ministry of Justice, 187,387 children were born last year.
The Ukrainian state is guaranteed to collapse irrespective of whether they manage to successfully defeat the Russians or not.
The Ukrainian state is going to become the boundary line of how far the European Union can expand.
The European Union is going to fail because it never managed to expand as far as the Greek or Roman empire that it replaced.
The Roman empire that replaced the Greek empire had a population peak ten times that of the Greek empire before it.
Comparatively the EU only managed to have a population 5.8 times larger than the Roman empire at its peak.
The Chinese empire in comparison has a population that only grew 3 times more than the Qing empire that it replaced.
The Chinese empire of today is even smaller than the Qing empire of the past in size.
The US, Chinese, and European Union empires are all compressed versions of previous empires that they replaced.
All three of these empires have so far failed to become larger empires than the ones at their peaks that they replaced.
The developed world does not just need more people any longer, it needs more land. There are no two ways around it.
Ukraine is free real estate for the people of European Union.
Germany can no longer fit any more people within it.
The EU can only afford to grow 2x in size before its full.
The US needs to take over Canada. That is the only correct move worth making. Have Canada sell off its lands to the US similar to what Russia did with Alaska.
Ukraine has failed.
Ukraine is proof that a population of 44 million people is not enough to safeguard the interests of a nation state and defend it from hostile action.
If you are a nation state with a population below 50 million, you are already obsolete in the competition among nations.
If you are a nation state with a GDP per capita below 20,000 USD, you are already obsolete in the competition between nation states.
If your fertility rate is below 1.5, you are already obsolete in the competition between nation states.
The number of relevant nation states in the world is less than 15 today out of 195.
The 21st century is the culling century, where the number of nation states begin to decline and populations collapse until only 10 remain.
Ukraine failed the filter completely.
