You didn't notice older people are Germans and younger migrants?

The Germans themselves chose not to have children.
I think they were pushed not to have children, if that matters. Pushed via economical measures that made it very hard and pushed via education/indoctrination that kids are bad in multiple ways.

My grandparents had many brothers and sisters each and life was harder back then, but it was easier to raise a large family than today. What changed? Taxes, with direct and indirect effects.

> What changed?

Contraception. Children weren't optional back then, they just happened naturally.

Wait until you learn you can be German and not look like the Bavarian stereotypes
