Population
The people in every province — how they multiply, learn and move.
EducationImplementedEvery province has an Education level from 0% to 100% that rises month by month through Education Gain. It speeds a country's research, shapes where parties find their voters, and slows population growth as societies modernize.ManpowerImplementedManpower is the pool of fit, unmobilized men a country can put into uniform. Its ceiling is a share of the population, raised by recruitment and reserve laws; brigades are trained and reinforced from the pool, which refills slowly over a generation.Public HealthImplementedPublic health measures how well a country keeps its people alive. It starts from a common baseline and rises with healthcare law and medical and food research; poor health drags population growth down, while good health adds a little through longer lives.UrbanizationImplementedUrbanization is how city-dwelling a province's people are. It is not built directly: it follows the province's GDP per capita, rising as the province develops, and it is the strongest brake on population growth in the demographic model.
