The distribution of all species on Earth, including humans, is dictated by the environment -- geography, temperature, amount of rainfall, and competition for limited resources, especially food. China is an old civilization with a long agricultural tradition. It is estimated that China already had a population of 60 million around 2 BC during the Han Dynasty.
Throughout the ages, China improved on its agricultural techniques which allowed for a higher crop output. The import of New World crops in the 16th and 17th centuries allowed China to grow crops on otherwise poor agricultural land. These are all proximate reasons for China's large population. The ultimate reason is, however, rainfall. Regular rains promote constant agricultural production and this allows greater numbers of humans to have sufficient food. China receives huge amounts of rain along the southern and eastern coasts. The population density in various regions of China is for the most part directly correlated with the amount of rainfall those areas receive.
Even the population losses of World War II and the Chinese civil war were offset in a relatively short time by a high Birth Rate. The PRC has eventually been forced to attempt to regulate birth rates by law, to avoid overpopulation.
