For the first time since records started back in in 1900, more people died in the Netherlands than were born in 2022.
According to a report by the Central Bureau of Statistics (CBS) of The Netherlands, last year the birth rate fell below the death rate, with 168,000 babies born compared to 169,000 deaths.

The official statistician agency noted that this was the first time deaths have outpaced births since records began in 1900 and that even during World War II there were still more babies born than deaths. The CBS suggested that the Chinese coronavirus likely played some role, however, that did not explain the full story.
“We have seen that births have been declining for years and that mortality is also increasing, but that mortality has been somewhat higher in the past three years due to corona,” Dick ter Steege of CBS told the NOS public broadcaster.
“So in that sense, this dip could be temporary. If the excess mortality is over next year, the number of babies will be slightly higher than the number of people who die,” he added.
Nevertheless, the population of the country still increased as a result of mass migration, with some 402,000 immigrants settling in The Netherlands last year, an increase of 150,000 over 2021. The increase was in large part a result of the war in Ukraine, with 89,000 Ukrainians being registered as fleeing to the country this year.

What if we count the White Europeans only ?
Smart mammals survive longer than dumb sheep. They might not get led to the green pastures to be shorn and then slaughtered, but they live longer and more wisely
