Japan has slid down the global population rankings, going from the seventh most populous nation in 1990 to 11th by 2022. It is projected to drop to 17th by 2050, falling behind countries such as Vietnam and the Philippines.
South Korea is also grappling with a plummeting birth rate. Its 2022 population of around 51.8 million is expected to shrink to 45.8 million by 2050.
United Nations data from the end of July 2022 showed China was the world's most populous nation, followed by India and the United States. But India is expected to surpass its neighbor by the end of April and to remain at the top into 2050.
