Eurabia theories predict Muslim demographic takeover of Europe.

Evidence

The widely received conspiracy theory, initially proposed by the polemicist Bat Ye’or (2001, 2005), reflected in the notion of ‘Eurabia’ foretelling the planned numerical and cultural domination of Europe by Muslims and Islam has achieved significant traction and features prominently in the accounts of various best-selling authors. … It also includes Mark Steyn (2006a), who has made the confident prediction that ‘much of what we loosely call the Western world will not survive this century, and much of it will effectively disappear in our lifetimes, including many, if not most Western European countries.’ — Nasar Meer, Racialization and Religion, 50
