What was Germany's population before World War 2?
Between 1939 and 1949, the population of Poland underwent two major changes. The deaths, emigration, and geopolitical adjustments resulting from World War II reduced the 1939 population of about 35 million to about 24 million by 1946. Only in the 1970s did Poland again approach its prewar population level. In addition, the ethnic composition of the country was drastically homogenized by the mass annihilation of Polish Jews and the loss of much of the non-Polish Slavic population through the westward shift of the borders of the Ukrainian and Belorussian republics of the Soviet Union.

It mostly has good benefits, such as:
Think of people living in China compared to the typical American. The minimum wage in the USA is 7.50, or somewhere around that. While the Chinese work for cents a day. There's much much fewer people in the United States than China. Businesses can pay their workers more because there's a higher demand for hands.
More food to go around!
Higher taxes, unfortunately.
Easier to govern (typically).
More money to be spread.
Cost of food/medication/healthcare/gas will decline.
This list can go on for a while. Just think of it this way-- if you have a loaf of bread, and you're trying to split it up between two people, both get half! Now, unless you're Jesus, you will NOT get a half if there's 13 of you. This can go for everything, not just food. It's a metaphor. ;)

What were the social consequences of population expansion during 18th century Europe?
his massive rise in population was to provide crucial labor for the Industrial Revolution. Why did the European population begin to rise in the early-18th century? Historians still debate the causes. The increase was due, at least in part, to a decrease in the death rate, itself a consequence of famines having become less common and plagues becoming less endemic. These gains did not generally lead to longer life spans (Europeans in the 18th century had alife expectancyof only about 30 years!), but they allowed more children to survive into adulthood. The population increase might also have been helped along by a climbing birth rate (itself perhaps a "recovery" response after demographic decline). In addition, slightly better living conditions in the second half of the 18th century allowed young adults to establish households a few years earlier than they previously could. This, in turn, allowed families to have children a few years earlier.
An exploding population was not necessarily a benefit to countries that were, in the 18th century, generally very poorand organized economically around subsistence agriculture. Traditionally, a rising population had raised the demand for food and goods, but it had also always overwhelmed a land's productive capacities. Population explosions in earlier centuries had often resulted in catastrophic corrections such as famine and plague, which returned the population to a lower level. The increase in population during the 18th century turned out to be quite different. While it raised demand, and hence helped to spur on the Industrial Revolution, the population growth did not outstrip the growth of economic productivity. For the first time in history, the terrible cycle of economic surplus, population growth, overpopulation, and famine was broken.

What shape did medieval people think the earth was?
"Medieval people" covers a lot of ground. There are people today who still think it's flat. At least some of the ancient Greeks were aware that the Earth was round, and even knew how big it was. The reason Columbus had trouble finding a sponsor for his expedition was not that everyone at the time thought the Earth was flat; the common people may have believed that, but educated people knew better. The problem was that they also knew how big it was (from the Greeks); Columbus thought it was considerably smaller and also thought Asia stuck out further to the east than it really does. The people who refused to sponsor his trip didn't think he'd fall off the edge, they thought he'd run out of supplies and starve... which he would have, if he hadn't run into the Americas long before reaching Asia.
What is the total population of ALL of Ireland?
