Also, I think there would be a difference between being hungry and starving to death. The carrying capacity will have a baseline level based on the agricultural development in the region, but will fluctuate year-to-year based on weather. In ETW, I think they'd do this in a more complicated manner. Classic application is that when the population exceeds the carrying capacity starvation leads to a reduction in population. P is the population, r is the reproductive rate a small number 0< r< 1, and k is the carrying capacity. Unfortunately, I teach differential equations, so you will receive more of a response than you probably ever want to read. Is the differential equation probably governing this situation. But before the lack of food, it was increasing by about three million people each year, and the amount of income that I have already lost because of this is enough to rebuild a few of my major cities (this one is just an estimate, I didn't want to work out what a city such as London would cost to rebuild). Yes, I did the maths there Don't know if I'm calculating exactly right but you should be happy with the population you have.I know that my empire will make at least eighty thousand gold from tax each turn, not including expenses, with about a hundred million people. If the population decrease in the most populated areas (France, with a hundred million, Bengal, with ninety million, and England, with almost fifty million), then it will go down to four hundred million within a century. It will still reach about five hundred million in thirty years, however, with the average population increase for regions in Europe before the lack of food. It was four hundred and fifty-seven million when I checked earlier, so I rounded up. Do you have a screenshot?I'll have one when Steam has finished updating the game. Back on topic Yeah, I find 500 million a little difficult to believe. The entire world's population will go down, eventually, when people have the same access to family planning, education, and, most importantly food. What can I do about this? Is there any way to make the population increase, other than cutting taxes (I could probably afford that if I disband the ridiculous amount of soldiers in useless parts of the world, but I don't want to do it, as I have named most of the units)?Д«ut im not sure if this can be trusted since its from wikipediaEurope's population, as with most developed regions, is expected to go down. Many of my American provinces, such as Mexico, which had a population of nine million (most of the immigrants are from Russia - I destroyed the entire country, then let it rebel, and hundreds of thousands of emigrants arrived in America whilst it was under British occupation), now have populations of less than three hundred thousand.

Scotland now has a population of thirty million people, when it was much higher a few turns ago. Not many of my trade routes are being raided, except in the Meditteranean, with the Ottoman fleets, and my income is over fifty thousand a turn, anyway.Д«ut, for some reason, many areas have no food.

I have researched every bit of technology there is available, other than that which has no effect on how much the farms produce, and most farms are massive. I have a large empire, with a large population of almost five hundred million people (with one hundred million in France, and another hundred million in northern India).
