Greece is one of the rare country on Earth which is underpopulated. It should have between 16 and 22 millions Greeks.

Around 5 millions
>Peloponnese
Between 3 and 4 millions
>Attic

Greece is not what it used to be anymore
It's because of geography. 80% mountainous terrain. We can't have heavy industry.
If we wanna strive economically it has to be through the service/tourist sections but most of greeks would rather just chill and enjoy the sun, me included.
It's good enough to get by but not good enough to thrive in riches.
>tourist sections

Nordic countries are underpopulated.
So few people being able to enjoy how great our societies are to live in.
so great
Great post
>almost 1 every 10 people
holy shit
>Turkish logic
Oh yeah we're definitely happy because less than 0,8% of the population is on antidepressants.
Attica is more than 5 million already, what are you talking about.
>istanBVUL
20 million
I thought Greeks were supposed to be good at math.
The reason your society works as well as it does is because you're very few.
But you are also few.
Isn't Greece very rocky and low on good farm land? If anything they're overpopulated.
Yeah, but there would be capacity to go up a lot. Naturally that'd require that the population increase followed the way of life as of now, ie. works, follows laws, etc.
Are you retarded? 100 in 1000 = 10 % or 1 in 10.
We're few but Greece covers way less land than Finland or Sweden. Also, much of that land is uninhabitable (mostly due to mountainous areas). As a result, even though villages and very small towns function like rural areas in your country (economically too), cities are full of shitty apartment buildings and poverty because people flock in the cities when there's simply not enough space.
western turkey has the same weather and very similar landscape and yet even our 3rd most populous city has almost half of your entire population combined
There never really were too many of us, so that's also a factor considering our low birth rate, but again, it's much more crowded than you think. Nearly half of our population lives in one city. Plus, Turkey is huge in comparison, and even if a few people move from the east to western turkey (searching for opportunities only found in big cities), that's probably still going to overshadow Greece's moderate numbers.
Greece must accept Makedonian bvll immigrants
But you were going great until 80s.
GIB GREECE ALL OF ANATOLIA BACK
Greeks gave us democracy, theater, mathematics and science. Turks gave us fuck all.
>implying
The ancient Hellenes were kicked out of Greece by the Turks and moved north, devolving into Albanians, modern "Greeks" are just Orthodox Turks.
>landmass is all that matters
Read before you make a smug reply next time stupid fag
how is finland any different? not like our land is any more hospitable
>It's because of geography. 80% mountainous terrain. We can't have heavy industry.
Our country is about as mountainous as that yet we do have advanced heavy industry. What is more important about geography is access to ports which Greece seems to have perfect. Another is abundance in water for industrial use. If your country was just wide plains then it would make more sense to base your economy on agriculture.
>If we wanna strive economically it has to be through the service/tourist sections
Didn't Greece used to have the world's best shipping industry? I don't know how it is going these days.
A lot of them moved it before they got into the EU. There’s a million subhuman Greeks living here for instance.
