China's population is about 500 million
There is no possible way that China's population is as big as they claim it is. In 1979 China instituted the "1 child policy" which set their birth rate to a maximum of 40% of replacement level and at that time China's population was 960 million according to the CCP, which was also doubtful since the country's population was supposedly 500 million in 1950 when the CCP took over and subsequently they suffered "The great famine" for 3 years in which 100 million died, so the 960 million figure in 1979 also seems like a probable overstatement, but even if it were true, the one-child policy would've meant a decline in population following 1979. Furthermore the country has seen practically no immigration while millions have fled China.
So there is no possible way their population swelled to the over 1.4 billion the currently claim.
Can /sci/ estimate what China's current population really is?
