When do native Europeans become a minority?

Population replacement is not a conspiracy theory. It is a measurable demographic development and a result of political decisions. We make it visible.

The status quo projects each country’s population composition if the selected demographic conditions continue. The 50% tipping point marks the first modelled year when the migrant share exceeds half of the resident population and the native population becomes a minority.

Select a country to explore its starting composition, projected trajectory and tipping point.

Population definitions are explained in each country view.

How could remigration reverse this development?

Population replacement is not inevitable. It can be reversed through political action.

The defined remigration scenario combines three assumptions:

• Migrant immigration at 10% of its status quo level.
• Regular emigration at an unchanged percentage of the remaining population.
• Additional annual remigration equal to a fixed 1% of the starting migrant population.

The reverse tipping point is the first model year in which the migrant share falls below 5%. The Institute uses this threshold as a theoretical endpoint and a possible reference point for demographic normalisation and harmonisation.

Select a country to see when this threshold is reached.

Population shares only - not a forecast of future total population.
