Demographics can tell you a lot about how it will go in 20 or 30 years, but trying to predict what will happen in 75 years — based on trends that have only been in place for a decade — is foolish.
And let’s not forget: Europe is literally drowning people who want to live there in the Mediterranean. There will also be refugees coming from whatever happens to the USA right now who want to get out. That map might be based on current population trends, but political events will change everything there.
