Arabs and Kurds are all known to take multiple wives.
Increased their race by tenfold.
Developing countries or countries who come from rural and conservative backgrounds will always have high rates of fertility.
Developed countries now have lowest.
Turkiye is a country in between. Even if you take the Illegals and Refugees out the fertility rates are still fcked.
The Country in the long term is screwed. Erdogan literally said to make 3 children by the way this sentiment was echoed long before him. Ataturk was the one who said that Turkish parents should have more than 1 kid.
When civilisation collapses the only ones who will survive in particular are the Yoruks.
Urbanised Kurds also now have a low fertility rate. Best example is Kurds living Istanbul or Izmir vs Diyarbakir.
Any country with low fertility rates is heading for collapse. If men have passed the age of 30 cant get married you know deep down society has changed for the worst.
Turkey needs to invest in artificial womb technology since women aren't having kids anymore and try to increase immigration from other Turkic republics that have a high birth rate.
In fact, there are a number of Turkic communities in countries with high birth rates; for example, Egypt in 1993 had about 1.5 million people of Turkic descent; I believe the number has risen to around 3 million now, and Afghanistan has 6 million Turks.
