A "Global chart" doesn't matter, because we don't have a one-world government or economy... but you can look up whatever individual country you wish by searching for "(Insert name of country here) demographic pyramid"
Here is the USA, for comparison:

So France is at its lowest birth rate since 1946. Us birthrate is at a historical low. 2% decline for the past decade year over year. Just a quick search.

Africa and India are growing with good birth rates
India's fertility just declined below replacement level last year. Their population will continue to grow for a while, though, due to increased life expectancy.
Birth rates in most of Africa are still high, but the numbers are rapidly coming down.
In the US, our numbers are significantly below replacement, such that you'll start to see some daycare centers closing. Population growth will continue, though, due to immigration.
Most of East Asia and Europe, though, are facing a catastrophic population crash. It's going to absolutely destroy economies in countries such as Japan, South Korea, China, Russia, Ukraine, and all of the EU.
Part of the reason that Russia and China have been working so assiduously to gain influence in Africa is that the world's economy in 20 years is going to look so very different from today's.
EDIT: I read Empty Planet when it came out five years ago, and everything that it predicted is actually happening faster than they predicted it.

Neither Russia nor any other state has the right to view its sovereign territory as inviolable in a war of aggression that it has initiated. Establishing the principle that nuclear-armed states can earn such inviolability through threats of escalation encourages other such potential predators to imagine that they, too, can attack with impunity and demand sanctuary in their own territory.
Does this include NATO who has been doing it for decades now?

Ukraine’s defence minister, Rustem Umerov, says, ‘Russia is still many times ahead,’ as he calls for more artillery shells.
Russia has pummeled towns and villages in northeastern Ukraine’s Kharkiv region days after launching a surprise ground offensive across the border that has forced thousands of people to evacuate.

and what is notable about our pyramid is that in the 1980s it narrowed and everybody was tearing their hair out about the economy and workforce and Social Security because the Baby Boomers were such a huge population and Gen X was such a small one... but 20 years later it was about even, because of immigration.

Doesn't matter as much... teenagers here don't die before adulthood as regularly as Russians... or run away from the country the minute they can, which is another big problem they have for middle-class and up kids.

NATO is a defense-only pact,.

Wreckage of an intercepted missile hit private businesses, Razvozhayev said. No casualties have been reported.
Explosions were heard in the city and fires are still burning near the Belbek military airfield, local residents told the Russian Telegram news channel Astra.

The rest of the world is not all in a similar decline. Are you someone who gets upset if everybody doesn't only get a participation trophy or something?
The dipshit is you... and this will be a major factor in Russia's collapse

So, you're concerned that America is getting less white? Good to know.

It’s an observation. Would you like to argue that it’s not true?
The pie is only so big. I think actual Americans should generally be the ones getting slices.
If you’ve got something of actual value to add I hope you get the express train to citizenship. If you’re just a warm body whose only real addition to the world is more offspring taxpayers have to raise, then I want you on the express train out.
Unskilled labor is not a value add, btw.
It’s way more simple than you race-baiting grifters make it out to be.

I'm race-baiting? Did I bring race up, or force you to make a racist statement?
What a pathetic clown you are. Just absolutely pathetic. At least SirWinston is sometimes entertaining in his racism and bizarre personal attacks.

America is being inundated with uneducated welfare recipients in order to win an election, that should be troubling for all Americans. I have no problem with legal immigration, people that bring something of value to this country, but this isn't that. This administration is causing irreparable damage but you go ahead and Ride with Biden because Trump said something mean about one of your neocon heroes.
