High birthrates were common also
in early industrializing societies,
but death rates fell markedly
because better diets and improved
disease control reduced child
mortality. Between 1800 and 1900
the British population increased
from 10.5 million to 37.5 million
while German numbers rose from
18 million to 43 million.
