What's new

World's most prolific reproductive people?

.
As a rule of the thumb the poorer communities throughout history tend to have more children as compared to groups that are financially well of. Maybe because the poor always fear for their safety and try to find safety in numbers.

An additional member means an extra bread earner in future, that's only what they think. :(

Are you guy's capable of looking at this beyond the humping part? Can we look at it on the larger scale then becoming trapped in the bedroom?

Probably have to take Mexico + South/Central America into consideration. There's over 600M today. Do we blame the Spanish,Portuguese, or Africans?
 
. . .
Lol. The answer I was looking for is over the last 500 year timeframe. Off the top of my head I would go for:-

1. British Isles
2. Germans
3. Spanish
4. Swedes
5. Russians

@Penguin @Technogaianist

I have sex because it's fun. I have sex because I'm in the mood to have sex. I have sex because it makes me feel better if I'm unhappy. It's good exercise too. But I've only ever once had sex to reproduce and am in no hurry to do that again.

Norway has a low birth rate, at about 12 births per 1000 people but is very sexually liberal. So I would say people around here just like to bone, but not for reproductive purposes.

In terms of birth rate Norway ranks 162nd out of 226 nations.

Indians. Everywhere in Paris I see Tamil Indians wearing dhoti and eating idli sambhar. What did they do to get this far to Paris
I somewhat Agree with u. Was in Belgium few months back and Being Indian their is like nothing new while in church and university. I was out of India First time. but they calling us "Brown Prince" don't know why. not seen any dhoti clad Indian their. Seems Indians are part of their community now.
 
. . . .
Certainly black Africans, because they are very workless and also don't find condoms in their countries.

Btw Indians, Pakistanis and Chinese are very active too...

Which part of "between 1500-2000" did you people not understand? We all know what sex is all about. We all know that growth varies across the world. However I was more interested historical strategic population growth rate. Africa contrary to what most people think has had very low absolute/relative population.

Of interest here is the strategic effect and shaping of the present world over the preceding 5 centuries. To understand that, it is of little use in giving damned snapshots of slivers of time. A camera snap today of a 500 year dynamic is pretty useless. I place British Isles first. In 1500 the population of England was 2.5 million and all of UK slightly more than 3.5 million. Yet that 3.5 million has shown such prolific growth as to win the "Olympic Gold".

1500AD - 3.5 million = Today

* 55 million
* 96 million
* 25 million
* 21 million
* 2 million
* 1.5 million
* There are small pockets in Zambia, Kenya, Zimbabawe and Argentina.

Total 199.5 million people with roots to British Isles. That is 57 times increase from 3.5 million in 1500. Can anybody else match this? And population of many European countries only appear to be low because huge amounts were exported abroad, mostly to the so called New World, filling them coast to coast.

Population increase follows what is known as demographic transition model (below) and countries are on it although at differant stages. It's funny to see for example German's mocking (who are at stage stage 5) Kenyan's who are at stage 2. In late 1890s Germans were in same spot - stage 2 and mas exported surplus German's as migrants to America, Australia and Brazil to name a few. Today significant number of American's are of German extraction.

There are also significant numbers of Swedes in US who also migrated during the high growth rate they experianced in 1890s. Today we live in a world where we regard migration as a affliction specific to some people. The fact is this is global and historical phenomenon. The major change over the last one and half centuries is not migration but the mass extermination of peoples to create space for migrants as was seen in North and to a degree in South America.

If all peoples were "nativized" or "repatriated" to their ancestoral origins UK, Spain, Germany would not have space to stand given the deluge that would take place. The largest recent migrant wave to displace native people occured only in 1947 when the Mediteranean saw boats full of Poles, Latvians, Lithuanians, Ukranians, Russians etc running from post war Europe to refuge in Palestine. In a strange twist of fate today people proximate from the same region - Western Asia are today moving in the exact reverse direction.
