If we let everyone in, there will be no Lithuanian culture in Lithuania.
"Africa is a demographic explosion waiting to happen. Its population has quadrupled since 1970, from 363 million to 1.4 billion people, and continues to grow at a rate far above other continents. Of the top 30 countries in the world's annual population growth for 2020, 28 were in Africa. This dramatic growth isn't the result of extended lifespans but of birth rates. The median age on the continent is below 20 years old. The countries with the 10 highest birth rates in the world are all in Africa. The overall African fertility rate is 4.4 children per woman. Asia's rate is half of that at 2.2. In Japan it is 1.4, in Singapore 1.1, and in South Korea it is one child per woman.
Economic and governmental systems in Africa have not kept up. In 2020 only one of the top 30 countries as measured by gross domestic product was in Africa (No. 27 Nigeria)." [1]
