India and China, by far the two most populous
countrys in the world, COMBINED arent even self
replacing now, even if you include immigration.


You were saying that 12 years ago, when the population
was 6.8 billion. Now it's 7.8 billion! lol
1804: 1 billion, 1926: 2 billion, 1963: 3 billion,
1974: 4 billion, 1987: 5 billion, 2000: 6 billion,
2012: 7 billion, 2023: 8 billion.
