When a new race goes into decline, is the older declined race removed?
The rulebook removes every token of the earlier in-decline race before the new one flips.

Yes. You can have only one race in decline at a time, so the older race's remaining tokens are removed before the new tokens flip, even if the new race has no tokens left or no regions. There is no choice about which declined race goes. A declined race never returns to active play, and the older race scores nothing on the turn the new race declines. Only Spirit changes this.
