Africa Faces Demographic Challenges Despite Growth
Deaths now outnumber births in 21 of 27 EU countries, as well as Japan and South Korea. Africa's demographic context presents challenges, partly due to its history of low conflict. The continent historically had numerous ethnic groups, allowing individuals to relocate to avoid disputes. This contrasts with more densely populated European history.
