Japan is somewhat special. At present, Japan's urbanization level has reached about eighteen percent, whereas before 1910, Japan's urbanization level was less than ten percent. In less than ten years, Japan's urbanization rate has increased by nearly eight percent, which is a truly terrifying figure.
The reason this figure is said to be terrifying is that Japan's population has now exceeded fifty million. From a population perspective alone, Japan's strength surpasses that of Austria-Hungary, as Austria-Hungary is comprised of many nationalities, while Japan is almost entirely made up of the Yamato Race, with only a negligible number of Ainu people living in Hokkaido.
In the previous century, Japan's population was just over thirty million, so Japan has significantly increased its industrialization while maintaining high population growth. If the French had birth rates like the Japanese, it would probably be Germany that had a headache now.
