The Effect of Population Control.

Every country has faced one or two challenges. If it's not a battle with corruption, then it might be a battle with natural disasters, some with famine, some with politics, and many more. But it's sometimes funny when you hear a country battling population density, and in the real sense, it's a serious battle a country could ever experience.

I recalled China having to find a way to overcome overpopulation some years back. They made laws about birth control. So every family should birth a kid or at most two. But despite that, they failed in the control. This is because over time the lower generation is beginning to reduce and they have more elderly ones compared to the younger generations.

If that should continue for decades then the country might not be what they envisioned it to look like. Population control is something natural. Let me say it's by nature, the date of mortality and natality of a country is predestined upon the people of the country.

Tell me how you want to control birth rates within families that give birth almost every year and one that doesn’t even have a child. They have both tried but giving birth is not artificial. And so does trying to change the fate of a country's gender population.

Maybe a country has more females than males in the country, then they thought the solution to it is to reduce the number of female births in the country. With time they will have to suffer the consequences of it because getting an average will be so difficult when the mortality rate begins to change.

From my point of view, I don't really think what matters is controlling the population of a country. But rather finding a solution to the economic crisis in the country. The more the population, the better the country should be. This is because they have the chance to explore a wider range of talented individuals in the country.

A country that doesn’t have a good population count could not have a good military, this is because the military needs people, even when it comes to production, with people then there is hardly a way a country would meet up to the standard.

In my country, Nigeria, we have several populations, and this is something the country has been taking for granted instead they keep complaining of insufficient resources to cater to the needs of the citizens. I dont see why a country with quite several populations good resources, and fertile lands keeps suffering.

There are many other countries with triple folds the population of Nigeria and they are doing better. Some of these countries don’t have the resources we have but they made good use of the ones they have and today a lot of people from different parts of the world are flocking to their country for tourism and a lot more.
