English population dropped by anywhere between a tthird and a half at the time of the Black Death in 1348, going from approximately 6 million to anywhere between 3 and 4 million.

a population crash
An example of how a symbiotic relationship could cause a population to crash is if a disease or parasite was to spread in a population that was dense. This could result in the population dramatically decreasing in a short period of time.
an overall decrease in population regardless of the location of the "clan"
Symbiotic relationships can cause a population crash if one or both species become overly dependent on each other for survival. If one species experiences a decline in population, it can lead to a shortage of resources for the other species, causing a ripple effect that impacts both populations negatively and can result in a crash.
A population that experiences exponential growth can rapidly outstrip its resources, leading to overpopulation and competition for limited resources. This can result in a population crash when resources are depleted, leading to a sharp decline in population size. Additionally, high population densities can also facilitate the spread of diseases and increase vulnerability to environmental fluctuations, further contributing to a potential population crash.
There would initially be an enormous population explosion until they exceeded the available resources, then the population would suddenly crash.
