The fall of France ......

10pct of your population is Islamic.

Your national birth rate is 1.9 (so you actually have a shrinking population like most of the west)
The Muslim birth rate in France is approx 4.0
So lets be conservative and say the Muslim population doubles every 20yrs in France, The year 2045 40pct of Frances population is Muslim.

How it could play out......(hypothetical)

June 2045 the French election's are called

40pc Vote for the Islamic France party.
30pc vote for the French fries party.
20pc vote for the French conservative party.
10pc abstain from voting.

The Islamic France party sweeps to Office and is now in control of a Nuclear superpower.
Future history or science fiction? And hence the fall of France as we know France today.

I can see one possible reprieve from this: Do what the French used to be Famous for , Make Love , Have 4 babies not 1.9!
The other options are not currently politically acceptable or popular.
