How did China get so populated?

Question

They usually don't have big families (i think), how did they get so many people there?

Curious

Answer 1

Because there was a prime minister who encouraged parents to have lots of children, then they started having problems with population and then they introduced the one-kid rule

Answer 2

they had many people who had many kids? idk, its the first logical thing that came to mind.....lol

Answer 3

Well, only now do they have small families. They must used to have had huge families, and since it was overpopulated they made a law to only have one child per family. That's why many people adopt chinese babies.

Answer 4

They had s*x a lot, they were married young, also Chinese people have been around for over 8000 years one of the oldest civilizations in the world so they got a head start.

Their huge population became  a problem so now they have a limit of one child per family.

Answer 5
