Japan's Population Declines for 17th Consecutive Year
Japan's population of Japanese nationals has fallen below 120 million for the first time in 42 years, marking the 17th consecutive year of decline. The country has implemented measures such as childcare support, cash incentives, and AI-powered matchmaking to address its demographic crisis. However, these efforts have so far failed to reverse the trend of declining births and population.
