Countries like to keep their population up for economic reasons; the more earners (up to a point), the more earnings. Further, if population goes down, the average age increases, and active workers have more pensioners to support, which decreases earnings.

In the terms of most European countries, France is underpopulated; it has three times the area of the UK, with the same population.
