Most Extreme Cases of Human Depopulation in History

- What are the most extreme cases of human depopulation for a given region in history? Although it has long been thought by sociologists that the human population of the planet is in dire straits of growing exponentially to the point of mass overpopulation, demographic analysis has proven this beyond a shadow of a doubt to be false. Although many areas are still growing, other nations and regions have a depopulation crisis currently brewing and only expected to get worse in the future.
Today, we will be looking at some cases of historic and future depopulation, wherein humans either stop having children, or participate in mass migration to a foreign land (either willingly or unwillingly). This video is not meant to offend anyone from any given country but simply to discuss the reality of the situation for many regions in the past, present and future. Thanks for watching!

Bulgaria's case is described as "the worst demographics crisis in the world" by UN
Ye, being the most corrupt country in the EU, does that to you.
@@mr.p215 well tbh corruption is only part of the problem , because even if we eliminated corruption , which is impossible anywhere in the world. In terms of local migration , villages being abandoned , people moving to the city , those areas are historically screwed... after communists destroyed agriculture , a lot of people were forced to move to the city, which broke a very important link , even when these people got their land back they don't know what to do with it and just rent it , which doesn't provide life to said village, where in places like italy there's generations upon generations working on a farm lets say , and they're perfectly happy doing so. That's not possible in Bulgaria. Everyone has it in their dna that they have to move to a bigger city . And as for educated people leaving , a huge fault is at universities. It's far too easy to get into a university and it's far too easy to graduate, the market is absolutely oversaturated with certain types of professions.... so much that for some professions it's absolutely guaranteed you won't be able to find work.

@@mirkomatic9907 its the facts , don't comment when you know nothing on the matter , or when you're trying to deceive, comrade
The predictions of population increase and mass starvation in Paul Erlich's book "The Population Bomb" did not occur as Erlich did not consider the dramatic fall in population growth that occurs with increases in education levels. Agricultural productivity has also greatly increased in a manner that he didn't predict as technical developments have increased productivity.
Productivity has increase but at the expense of a decline in quality. Soil degradation and force-feeding caged up animals with industrial feed isn't exactly the same as when small scale farmers produced their own food. Technical developments only kicked the can down the road it didn't solve the problem. The fact is, we live on a finite planet and unless Elon Musk finds other habitable planets in the next few decades, we have to manage our population. Which looks like we're already doing, albeit indirectly
Increased agricultural productivity is just delaying the problem
@@jamesricker3997 Which problem? The human population decreasing in the next 50 years?
@@jamesricker3997 I wouldn't say that because technology is always improving. The growth rates assumed by Erlich assumed a static productivity rate. He was also wrong about growth rates, so the problem doesn't really exist as he defined it.
@@attysthoughts3253 The population growth problem has never existed as Erlich projected. The proportion of arable land needed to feed more people has actually fallen. The best population growth control method is to increase education and income levels, as China has experienced. Their One Child program cut population growth so dramatically that there is a shortage of young people of working age required to support the aging population. A shortage of women also exists as so many female babies were aborted by families wanting a male as their one child. So the population alarmists were not only wrong with their projections, but their solutions have proven problematic.
The "triple allianz war" (Paraguay vs Brazil, Argerntina and Uruguay) in 1864 made Paraguay lose 50% of it's population. After that war, the women to men ratio was 5 to 1. The paraguayan women had to rebuild the country.

Speaking of the Irish and British: "They speak the same language, right?"
Me: Yes, because the British conquest made the Irish language (a celtic language) go almost completely extinct being replaced by English (a Germanic language)
psssh stop being so divisive, it's all Indo european baby! besides, that's what Indo europeans do! assimilate other IE populations, this can even be seen in the conquest of ireland from the mainland celts and so on.
@@logancoolgamer-zn7yu Aight, so, if I understand well, you're telling me it's ok to almost interily erase the language of a people, one of the most defining features of a given culture, as long as its replacement is in the same super-family of languages and there's a precedent.
English isn't even fully Germanic. It is, at best, a Latin-Germanic creole.
Can add other Celtic languages too such as Gaelic of the Scots etc...
It's even more mixed than that, the Norman (Norman being a distinct French dialect) influence was far more pronounced back when people pronounced the loan words in a way vaguely similar to how they were meant to be spoken, the British also took words from basically everyone they ever came into contact with so there are Hindi, Celtic, Arabic and many many other words mixed in with little rhyme, reason or uniformity beyond being horrifically mispronounced. Nordic languages also had a big impact as did Greek (mostly only dating back to the romanization of the language in from the Georgian period onwards).

Hi Masan,
Bulgarian here. Saw my country in the thumbnail and since I love your channel, I thought that this is a must-watch content and indeed it is.
I can't really say whether mass depopulation worldwide is a good thing or a bad thing (yet) although I find it worrying.
My country suffers from depopulation greatly. And that has reflected economically too - not enough workforce to stay and contribute. So much so that there are certain areas where there just aren't enough hospitals to take care of the few remaining elderly people in some cities and towns. It has become unattractive for many young people because of the lack of well paid job opportunities that have remained in some places.
I used to live in Slovakia for 2 years, tried to adapt but had some difficulties. Loved my time there in a way, but luckily, there was a better job offer in Bulgaria and I had decided to go back in my own country. Best decision ever! After several months of having to re-adapt, I actually stopped considering migrating ever again. Think it's more important to preserve my own language, identity and well, it's easier to make a good, humble living without someone treating you like a cheap labour price tag which is something I came to realize while working abroad.
This is absolutely true, I am the native of one of the countries mentioned and it saddens me to see my country undergo such insane demographic downturn.
I feel very much where you are coming from. My parents immigrated to Canada because of Kosovo war and it pains me that we cannot go back. I am currently working so that I can live in Serbia again. I cannot bare to think of what my ancestors suffered for this land just for our own people to forsake it and leave. I wish you all the best in your journey.

Population shifts for me are so hard to mentally comprehend at once.
In my area the population has been swelling immensely. The forest and farms in the region have been going down in swaths to make way for urban expansion. While some of my extended family up north have been seeing the opposite. Large chunk of abandoned urban sprawl is being demolished by the state to give way to nature’s reclamation.
It’s just hard to wrap my head around at two opposite trends happening at once.

@@MrAsianPie its Virginia why u stated it as old dominion?
Just called urbanization. More jobs = more people. More people = more jobs. This trend is self fulfilling and the vice versa is true with less people = less jobs, and thus less jobs = less people.
In Industrialized countries it's just too expensive for most people to have more than two children, add to that the fact that both parents will need to work and time becomes a factor also, recent reports I have seen showed young Chinese (who are being encouraged by the state to have more kids), citing the above reasons for not having more, or maybe any children.
Great work as always Masaman!
Although, I think there is some truth to your statement, one might argue that poorer regions have much higher fertility rates; look at Bangladesh and Kenya. It almost seems as if the number of newborn children is antipropotional to their affordability.
@@heluphicclovanass8954 In a poorer (and particularly an agarian) society, children are an economic benefit rather than a cost

Hey Masaman, love your videos honestly have learnt so much from your videos!

Hey man, you okay? Just checking since you haven't posted in a while.
Depressing to see many historical countries like in Europe and Asia disappearing like that in terms of their populations.
While native population is indeed disappearing, the overall world population is higher than in the past centuries, there is a lot of room for speculation on any side. Especially since non democradic goverments like China and Russia provide false data on their population.
20th-18th century's europe population was obviously lower than modern for example, because of obvious wars and the lack of immigrants. Now you could say it's higher than it's ever been, so even if it drops a little there isn't much of an issue.
However if we take specific countries that lose population due to more extreme circumstances, like Ukraine, because it has territories occupied by Russia and also in a state of war with it, that is something to worry about for real. A democratic country losting population due to the war with a dictatorship regime (That mimics itself as a democracy) should be an emergency call for all civilized world.
@@mehwhatever9726 it isn't the totalnumber of people in any given area that matters,but the genetic and culture makeup. Humans and the various cultures are NOT interchangeable.
The extinction of even one is a loss to all.
@@lunaflamed That's some nazi level bullship right there, any population is the same, except it takes a period of time to adapt to the new culture rules. That's how every culture was formed to begin with, it was never monolite. How many ethnics and cultures were fused together to create english for example? Celts, romans, anglo-saxons, norse, it's always a cocktail!
If people want to adapt and given adequate measures to do so, they will. Of course there will be issues with some groups/individuals, but that's why immigrants should be selected more carefully and introduced to foreign cultural values first and foremost. Excessive immigration politics make it harder to manage and result in more conflicts, but on the other hand it was always like that, in the good old times, when ethnic conflicts were far more exterime. It will take a century or two for everyone to adapt. That is if you look at it patiently.
In a world where people can travel wherever they want the cultural borders are less and less relevant, of course it doesn't mean natives should be force-accumulated, every culture is equally valuable (Unless it's agressive on other cultures). This process is natural and inevitable, it simply means a new culture is forming, though there is always a room for improving it.

Modern British, for example, are made of Bretons, Romans, Anglo-Saxons, Norse, Normans, Mixture of Irish, Scottish, Welsh during their unions. And in the modern age, people intermarry whoever they will. And that's just for genetics, not cultural influence.

MASA, you made here a BIG mistake in your video!!! the Koreans where not expelled from Sachalin! back then Sachalin was split between USSR and Japan, the Koreans which got deported lived in the Primorsky krai, mostly in Vladivostok...there where mostly refugees who escaped to Russia after in 1910 Japan taken over Korea...and they where not 200k but more like 500k....Stalin was worried as they where suddenly making almost half of the primorsky population and he was worried that Japan would lay claim on the area...so in the 1930ties he deported them to central Asia...and now back to Sachalin, when the Soviets took over the southern half (Karafuto) the population was 500k Japanese and 50-100k Koreans...the Russians kicked the Japanese out but did not allow the Koreans to go home...they where used as labor in the Coal mines....

Just have to correct you on one: Yugoslavia was not an Eastern block country. It was a non-aligned country.
It was tho they were comunist too
@@viesturs6321 not all comminist countries were part of the Eastern Block. Yugoslavia founded the non-aligned movement of those who were neither aligned towards the west nor to the East. Tito didn't want to cooperate with Stalin, which saved the country from economic disaster. Yugoslavia was the only socialist country that was allowed to send guest workers to Germany and trade with the US.
Albania was another non-Warsaw Pact communist regime.
It was a fucking dictatorship, so who cares. It was worse than the eastern bloc with its war and hate.

Koreans from Sakhalin were never deported, Sakhalin became Soviet with all Koreans after WWII, while Korean deportation happened in 1937. Koreans in Soviet Union are about 800,000 if all mixed origin Koreans counted. Russian Far East at the time was not a very pleasant place to be with almost nothing to eat. Majority were deported to Tashkent, hello, it is rich and plentiful urban area, 5th biggest city in USSR

The greatest depopulations in history:
1. Nishapur (April 20th, 1221AD) population 1.7 million reduced to zero in a single day after it was sacked by Genghis Khan (deadliest day in all of human history) 100% loss
2. Königsberg (1939 to 1946) went from 372k pop to around 10k by 1946. Entire population was eventually deported and replaced by Russians. near 100% loss
3. Easter Island (1200s) population declined from 20k to about 200. 99% loss
4. Slow decline of Rome (100s to 500s AD) population peak at 1 million to a low of around 10k. Near 99% loss over 500 years
5. Sack of Tenochtitlan (1521) population decline of 400k to 5k about 98% loss.
6. Mayan Collapse (1300s) population declined from 300k to 30k about 90% loss.
7. Sack of Constantinople (1453AD) population 100k to 20k about 80% loss
8. Bronze age collapse (1300BC to 1100BC) Minoan Greece, Hittite Kingdom, Egypt, Assyria, Sumeria, Indus River civilization (Mohenjo Daro) all simultaneously collapse losing 70% to 80% of population
9. Black Death in Europe (1347 to 1353) Around 50% of Europe's population dies of plague
10. 30 years War (1622 to 1652) Central Europe loses about 30% of it's population to war and famine

Bulgaria is a tragedy. Without a war, major natural disaster or famine, we are shrinking in record speed. After the „changes“ of 1989 most people simply chose to emigrate instead of fighting for the country. We are in all „nice“ rankings like for depopulation, bad health, poverty, corruption etc. while being an EU member…Such a pitty as we have an amazing land with amazing history and traditions at a key location. We managed to survive here for thousands of years and now we are just leaving it behind…
lol that's what happened when you leave communism to chase the capital.
There has been significant migration from the Pacific Islands countries of Tonga, Samoa, Cooks, etc to New Zealand, Australia, etc, with 50-70% of their population living outside the country.
similar thing happened with Amerindians leaving the Reservations as well.
You gotta turn the volume up a little.
I can't even imagine China in 2100....to think of all those ghost cities, the empty streets.....reduced to 600 million people ....it will be to the old generation then as if the Thanos snap was real
And don't worry, if the Chinese Communist Party manages to survive until then they'll just lie and say their population is around 3 billion.
Meh. The cities will probably be fine, the countryside tho...
@@Paranoid_Found I'd say it depends on where the city is. If it's not close to some of the older, more established cities. It will likely go the same way as the countryside towns.
Chinese will do what the government tells them to do. CCP educates people to have more children they will.
Nope it will have a population 1.09 billion by 2100. It can be even larger since their government introduced the 3 child policy.

I hate when people in the west talk about deciding to not have kids to 'help save the planet from overpopulation' or whatever, when in the west - Europe, Japan, South Korea, America etc. and now even China, we're in a demographic crisis - people aren't having nearly enough kids and this is leading to all sorts of problems that will only get worse with time. Europe's population is drastically shrinking and the problems of an ageing population are only just about being put off for now by supplementing with immigration.
Overpopulation is a problem, but this is only in the developing world - India, Africa etc. not in the developed world, where we have the opposite issue.
Exactly, population decline in Bulgaria isn’t going to fix overpopulation
exactly why we need Pronatalism

I'm from Bulgaria and it's a pretty big problem. Towns and villages get abandoned all the time and the economy is going down. Also, the Gypsy ethnic group is growing fast and they are about to become the majority of the population in Bulgaria. So yeah, I am about to become a minority in my own nation.
In Australia, Chinese are taking over the country. In my city Melbourne, you might see white people every 1/3 people now. Crazy stuff.
@Sergio Fernandez Well they are as well. We now have like 700,000 Indians.
@Sergio Fernandez I have had friends from both groups, but ever so slightly Indians. Although Indians have such freaking unrealistic values, so do Chinese. The Chinese are not great at driving from what I've observed. We also have Chinese spies in our Uni's, so yeah very fun..
@Sergio Fernandez Yep a lot of Muslims here as well. Not as much as European Countries, but we have around 640,000. We also have about 600,000 Buddhists, 200,000 Hindus, 100,000 Jews, 100,000 Sikhs and more. 12,500,000 Christians and 7,100,000 Non-Religious people. Also, our population is 76% White (19,000,000), 17% Asian (4,500,000), Others (2,000,000 including 800,000 Aboriginal Australians). By your name, I would assume you're Spanish or Portuguese. We have like 150,000 Spanish Speakers and 45,000 Portuguese Speakers.
@Sergio Fernandez Sometimes there are, a famous example of this would be the 2005 Cronulla Riots. Lebanese and White people were up pretty pissed with each other. We tend to get along with other cultures alright, except for the Sudanese Gang Violence that happens on our cities' outskirts.

What’s so horrifying is that the first-world is experiencing massive population decline while the third world has extreme overpopulation in places like Bangladesh and Nigeria. This can’t end well
Why wouldn't this end well?
@@krumbleme2 Mabye because of the replacment of the native population of Europe and Asia???
I really enjoy your videos and watch them often. I think the other thing to add to the deep population is the decrease in fertility rate which is estimated at dropping about 15% per generation. At that rate it’ll only take two or three generations before it will be difficult to actually conceive children. Currently this is mostly male fertility that is being lost, The cost is not truly understood. Perhaps sometime you can talk about that
Thanks for your programs
When dynasty switches in China you can see way higher numbers--sometimes 40% or even more population drop.
bloody history
Your videos are so good, deserve more views
Living in India and watching a video about population decline, I wish India's population was reduced to half like the thanos did in the movie.
Extremely low and extremely high population are both unsustainable.
India will be one of the more sustainable nations with a future
India's population growth rate has been on a decline since the last decade! Yes many people are still ignorant. Population explosion is no longer a problem now. Many cities have growth have the growth rate either equal to or even lesser than the replacement rate. So it is just a matter of time for this trend to continue.

Due you have any idea how tremendous pressure a population off 1.4 billion exert on natural resources.

Ground water table sinks to depths never heard before.
High populations have extremely negative impact on nature and environment.
@@logicalvichar8930 I'm indian and I know everything what you are saying and you're right. What I'm saying is that this immense population pressure that we are seeing right now is because of our grandparents and great grandparents had many kids. Then those kids had kids if their own. But the growth rate is declining. Our population will probably peak some time in the near future and then it will start declining. I was talking about the growth rate and hence future prospects not the current.
This is really sad.
Good video.
Mason is on the spectrum, he doesn't experience emotions
Its not. Overpopulation would destroy our civilization. We need depopulation

@@1vaultdweller I agree, however the sad part is that some countries are losing such an enormous part of their population. All humans can easily survive at the current amount of people as long as we distribute resources properly.

A really interesting albeit smaller example is the population decline of New York City during coronavirus. Between March and May of last year (2020) 420,000 people left. In only two months, they lost hundreds of thousands of residents.
It’s unknown whether the city will bounce back fully or not. The city was shrinking for the few years before coronavirus, and many people were considering leaving before the pandemic. Many of the people who have left have bought homes elsewhere at this point.
And with the rise of remote work, there’s significantly less incentive for people, especially professionals, to live in the city.
40,000 deaths. The population of a town.
The only significant drop in world population that was ever recorded was during the mongol conquests and the black death.
Let that sink in.

You forgot to mention Kazakhs they lost almost third of its population and they are still struggling to make it 20 million people living in Kazakhstan today
Yes. Everyone in the western world is thinking of Hitler, but the soviet union was much worse.
He at least mentioned crimeab Tatars. Russia is STILL coming after them and STILL wants to remove them from their homeland and everybody is silent.
Kazakhstan is also Russia's slave. Many Kazakhs don't even speak their own language, they only speak the language of their slaveholders.
@@chraman169 I see where you're coming from but I don't know where you get that information. I'm kazakh living in Kazakhstan and we only speak kazakh and english. And half of my big family were killed by nazis not soviets. Famine was caused not by russians but bolsheviks who overthrew provisional government. Hitler is still worse than soviets don't make bs statements/
@LD Tha P Dude you don't have to tell me what language do we speak in our neighbourhood I was born and bread here all 25 years of my life I never had to speak russian. Even my grandma who lived in a soviet union never knew a single russian word. Try speaking russian in Shymkent or Qyzylorda you'd be looking completely stupid and out of place.
@@jojobetzler6308 You probably live in a suburbs of a small town which is mainly Kazakh. It is weird though that you have have never used Russian for the past 25 years. However, I know some who don’t and, pardon me, they live out of civilisation.
@Ярослав Л It's incredible that a person can lie that much. Everything you said is wrong (Don't know about the Kazakh immigrants in Russia but everything else for sure).
You wanted to fully exterminate the crimean tatars. They were 100% of crimea 250 years ago now they are 10%.You scattered them to Kazakhstan, Uzebekistan, Siberia and elsewhere. Many of those who are older than 40 rember the life in the places you sent them.
You also killed millions of Kazakh, Uzbek, Circassians and more than 10 MILLION Ukrainians.
The soviet union caused far more deaths than hitler ever would have even if he lived until 1970.
You want to put me into a Gulag like you put so many other people in, right?
I could see fertility rates rebounding to replacement levels or higher. There's no way to predict the future in the mid to long term, contrary to what the charts might forecast. Humanity tends to become more adaptable when crises hit a fever pitch, and addressing aging and fertility is becoming a policy priority for regions heavily afflicted. In the short term, however, the depopulation trend is becoming its own distinct pathology, over-urbanization, automation and debt seem to be big drivers.
You may be right but I would offer a counter point.
I think that the way of living in large families is something that is passed on by experience, learned by imitation. I don't think that someone raised as a single child would choose to have many children. On the contrary they are more likely not to have children than those raised in a large family.
The culture and not the government seems to control the factors that motivate someone to have children.
Also consider that in African countries women are having their first child in their late teens. In Western countries the average age is close to double that.
I'd agree that there is a tendency to replicate the familiar, but why assume that family size preferences only head in one direction. Also, I'd say that culture and policy are both part of the requisite milieu to push a trend in either direction. Regarding Africa, though family sizes are large in Sub-Saharan Africa, it's still trending downward there too. I'm some what of the Julian Simon's mindset, ergo pro-growth. I don't think the species can continue to advance technologically without a positive population growth rate. We'll collectively age into a selfish gerontocracy.
Sperm counts are drastically down in developed nations also, and other aspects of fertility are also waning.
Despite compounding covariates, such as declining sperm counts, children-per-woman seems to be leveling out at just below replacement levels in many developed regions. Interestingly, some countries are seeing their CPW figure slightly increase (see link below). So, I don't think that the challenges posed by diminished sperm counts or other issues are insurmountable. Incentives for larger family sizes, increased research and development for fertility treatments and cultural messaging that encourages family formation could push post-industrialized humanity above replacement levels. It has to be a priority though, and it is becoming more so everyday. It's probably a good time to start investing in companies that specialize in fertility treatments. ourworldindata.org/grapher/children-per-woman-UN?tab=chart&country=DEU~JPN~ISR~MAC~BRA~SGP~RUS
