Question

what are some of the long-term implications of population loss?

Answer 1

Some of the long-term implications of population loss include; decline in the population of men who can defend the country. The declining population badly affects the economy of a country due to the declining human capital i.e. human resources; for example, there is a reduction in the labor force of the country due to declining population leading to an effect of various factors such as; agriculture, transportation, military etc. The decade-long economic malaise of Japan and Germany in the 1990s and early 2000s is often linked to these demographic problems.
