Not really true, for example: Sweden has been doing above EU average on both immigration and higher birth rates (for its development level) to account for the shortfall, it's not that clear cut in Europe as a whole.
- spaceman_2020 4y agoFair, but Sweden's population is just too small to make any meaningful impact on Europe as a whole.
- piva00 4y agoBut that's moving the goalposts, Europe has a bunch of countries with small populations, Sweden is 16th in population from 40+ countries. Aside from Germany, Italy, the UK, France, Spain and Poland all the other countries will hover +- ~10 million people compared to Sweden. It's smack in the median of population size in Europe.
- spaceman_2020 4y agoIn all fairness, Sweden isn't exactly doing remarkably well either. It's fertility rate is still well below replacement level. It's still in terminal decline. Just a tad slower than its peers.
- oezi 4y agoWhat is the difference between decline and terminal decline?
- swedishfishes 4y agoFor the curious Americans, Sweden has about the population of Michigan.
- rejectfinite 4y agoMakes us even more impressive ;)
- swedishfishes 4y agoNo doubt :P But understandably doesn’t have a huge absolute impact on overall European metrics.

- slaw 4y agoIt is 388,903.23 Statues of Liberty. Source ChatGPT. what is summary of height for every swede person what is average of 181 and 167 multiply 1.74 by number of swedes divide 18,064,000 by height of statue of liberty in meters
- Dylan16807 4y agoWhy. ChatGPT can't do math right. It did both the multiply and the divide wrong, which makes it even worse than usual to have that many digits on your final answer.
- slaw 4y agoPlease don't shoot the messenger. American units are complicated. I tried again. How tall are all Swedes together measured in the Statue of Liberty? ... Therefore, the total height of all Swedes measured in the Statue of Liberty is approximately 0.065 meters, or 6.5 centimeters.
