The website deagel.com once contained concerning projections for the year 2025 that many believed was predicting a massive population drop in countries like the United States.
The website deagel.com exists as a source for military strength estimates, etc. for most of the nations on earth. At one point, the website listed population and GDP estimates for most nations for 2017 (current at the time) and 2025 (future projection). The projected values for many nations, including the US were alarming to many, especially once Covid-19 occurred. The common speculation was that they had insider information about a major future event that would cause these predictions to become reality. The USA had one of the largest drops, and most of the other nations with the most population reduction are allies of the USA. Smaller countries are the main ones with population increases, and the BRICS nations are positive or flat (with large increases in GDP).
Since then, this information has been removed from the website. Additionally, since we are now past 2025, the information has proven false. It’s still a common source of internet speculations, so I’ve created this page to archive it for reference.
