part of the reason spain and portugals population didn't rise in that period (and actually dropped shortly afterwards) was because of the empire IIRC - effectively outward migration from the mid 1500's onwards.in the 17th century Portugal despite having an empire had a population similar to Ireland @ 1 to 2 million.
after that Ireland's population more rapidly.
Java is 50% larger than Ireland (48,000 sq. miles) and had an estimated population of 10 million in 1800 and 150 million in 2020.

Good coffee tho
oh holy shit (no pun intended)Indonesian coffee in general is a tad overrated imo. I've had that weasel coffee in Java which was nice but again overrated impo.
oh holy shit (no pun intended)
I've always wanted to try that
there is a big modern house near me that took several years to build. 'cause the couple were so fussy and they had to bring in other (reluctant) people to finish it.What Cormcolash said.
Also back then people didn't live in massive gaffs.
And there's a thing about wind turbines and turf cutting and enviromentalism and land management that I haven't really articulated. I was hoping someone else who actually lives there might have said something.
I would watch a TV dramatisation of thisthere is a big modern house near me that took several years to build. 'cause the couple were so fussy and they had to bring in other (reluctant) people to finish it.
one of them was a Trojan worker growing up for my folks. they would have work done before they were asked to do it. but also the was type who would phone in vote on talent shows.
the person and their siblings lost all cred with me by repeatedly googling answers on their phone at pub quizzes. everyone knew they did this but they were so pathetically competitive they did it every time.
one day an undertaker won a pub quiz by tombstoning them at their own game.
they only finished third and I was delighted!
I often wonder what's in their big house detached house on a big site 2 km outside a village?
probably not much. it's emblematic for me of someone building a big house and not knowing what to do with it.
Well Holy God.I would watch a TV dramatisation of this
me and a mate of mine were going to go halves on one when we were in our 20s, even though we both lived in shoeboxes of houses and our gardens the size of a box-room.I have known/worked with several people for whom a goal in life was to buy a ride on lawnmower. Because owning a lawn large enough to take a huge amount of time to maintain seems to be an aspirational thing.
