Forgive me for nitpicking more, but most places with famines tend to still tend have large families, and arguably North Korea is an exception to that. Compare North Korea to the countries affected by 2011 drought in east Africa and the countries affected by 2012 Sahel drought. I'm not going to list every country but north African countries in general have far larger birth rates than east Asian countries. In terms of cultures, I've never been to Cuba, Haiti, or North Korea either, so I don't really know either. But my anecdotal experience of places I have been, there are a lot of people both who don't want children, but won't admit it, particularly not to their parents. And there are also a lot of people who do want children.
