After a record drop in the birth rate in Japan, the government introduced a dating app to arrange marriages.
Japan's birth rate continues to decline, and the government recently saw a record drop in births.
According to the data released by the Japanese Ministry of Health, only 727,277 babies were born last year in a country with a population of 123.9 million.
According to experts, any country needs a birth rate of 2.1 to maintain a stable population, but Japan's birth rate has been well below 2.1 for half a century.
The reason for the rapid decline in population?
Japan's rapid population decline is due to low birthrates and high death rates, which are causing the population to shrink.
