The fact that the world is grossly over populated is a very inconvenient and ugly truth but a truth nonetheless.
If there were only a billion or so of us we would be at something approximating homeostasis. Unfortunately we are not and I'm not sure exactly what the answer is aside from a mass cull or rapid development and implementation of new technologies.

That uninhabited swathe of land you refer to.is the Eurasian steppe and since time immemorial has only been inhabited by the most hardy of nomadic tribes such as the Mongols and the Scythians who did not practice agriculture. By all accounts it was a bloody grim existence.
Spreading people across regional areas will not decrease the requirement for resources.

I remember reading about the Georgia Guidestones some years ago
Religion The Cherokee believed that the land they occupied was the center of the universe. They also believed that everything, not only living things, had a soul, except for the bear. So the ground they walked upon was sacred, the trees were sacred, even the rocks were sacred. A single shaman (holy man) would make decisions about religious matters and was normally viewed a the second most powerful man in the tribe. When the shamans failed to end the smallpox epidemic that ravaged Cherokee society in 1738 their power fell and they were no longer considered as leaders.

I remember when I could just walk up to them some years ago.
Until groups of idiots , claiming they were sinister , decided to deface them.

Did you take any personal pictures when you were able to walk up to them?
If so, and you can find one or two it would be great if you could share them here.
