Does it count against a country if their population is growing, but mostly due to immigration? The US by far has more immigrants than any other nation, taking about 1M per year. We'd be about steady state if there were no immigration (not making an argument for eliminating immigration).

Anyhow, Japan is the trend setter now, and they are a sign of things to come with a declining population.
