Does the Danish number include or exclude Danish citizens born on Greenland or the Faroe Islands?

I expected Germany to be 75%~, interesting.

Switzerland is chopped, most young people have a German or French parent from 100km away, will lead to the collapse of society.

Rip western europe.

What false narrative are we trying to push today here?

I‘m surprised by the figure for Ireland. Are we counting citizens from Northern Ireland as ‘non-native’ or are the second parents mainly from Poland or some other country?

Presumably a 2nd generation non European background person would count as native, while a European with roots going back thousands of years who exercises freedom of movement within the block is foreign.

All those Belgians of whom one parent is Dutch, French or German from 20km away…
It’s a ridiculous map.

Yes, and most of these come from migration in the Schengen area. You’re welcome.

The color scheme is a bit questionable, no? It’s clearly trying to push you towards thinking that foreign-born = bad.

France at 71% is laughable, anyone who has been to a French city lately could see that demographic changes are much more extreme than this suggests

Interesting. They seem quite high to me. Here in Australia it’s around 48%.

60% for belgium seems high, I would expect below 50 like Switzerland since it’s between GER/FR/NL which have much bigger populations and the same languages
But overall the graph looks good, it makes sense that the countries that are in the center of the schengen area are more globalized, and it also makes sense that the more advanced economies (which have developed ternary sectors, which are more globalized), have more.

Beautiful map with the UK Atlantised.

In other news, rich countries attract foreign people, poor countries don’t.
Eastern European love to brag about the „purity“ of their country… While sitting in a French/German/British flat.

In Poland residents with non-permanent residency permits don’t count towards the population. Which is different than in most other EU countries

Lol qhere the source for this? I doubt there is one, this seems to be just right wing fantasy 🤣
Nobody makes a statistic about this, also i never was asked if i was born here when we had the kid and so on, total bullshit

Which is kinda meaningless if you don’t compare with the other age groups.
You’ll see that for the total population of the EU:
* 15–29 year-olds (born 1995–2009) are 73,6%
* 30–54 year-olds (born 1970–1994) are 75,1%
* 55–74 year-olds (born 1950–1969) are 82,1%
I couldn’t find the data for the others.
Overall, taking into account the timeline of the EU, I’d say these numbers are pretty normal.

Map bias – red is bad, blue is good. There’s a clear political point being made here on this map.

This is made up completely for the balkans (and probably other countries) – it’s going by other figures rather than place of birth
iggyfenton on
What’s funny is this map is intended to make you feel that immigrants from poor countries are ruining the pure blood of people in European countries and killing those countries culture.
However most of these numbers could be just from people from one red country hooking up with someone else from a different red country.
If someone from Sweden marries an Englishman then both countries become more red. However I bet the racists that see this as replacement theory don’t count that marriage as a problem.

What’s the definition of native here ?
France has „droit du sol“, which means 1st/2nd generation immigrants could be counted in these %.

Glory to România!!

I’d much rather see the numbers with citizens from neighbouring countries excluded from the foreign list. Or even non-EU citizens. At this point in time it’s become relatively common for citizens of Eu nations to mingle, form a relationship and have kinds in the end.

All this map says is which countries EEA citizens leave and which they go to in order to find work and education.

Good job Poland

Is that native to that country, or native to the EU?
That would tell two very different stories.

My dad wasn’t born in Germany but the reason for that is that my Granpa worked in Indonesia. But my Grandma is from Indonesia

I am in the 60% of Germans. Also, this is a hilarious map because no UK.
