Which dynasty in China had the largest population?

The population of China once exceeded 654.38+billion in the Northern Song Dynasty, then reached between 654.38+billion and 200 million in the late Ming Dynasty, and increased to 654.38+0.5 million in the 28th year of Wanli (654.38+0.600). In the late Ming and early Qing dynasties, people's lives and property suffered losses due to bandits' insurrection, Qing soldiers' entry into Shanhaiguan, entry war and San Francisco rebellion.

After a long period of rest and recuperation in Kang Yong, the population grew rapidly. The population was unclear in the early Qing Dynasty. Historian Jiang Tao estimated that the population increased to 65.438+0.680 billion around the 19th year of Kangxi. Zhao Wenlin estimated that in the 24th year of Kangxi (1685), it exceeded 1 100 million.

During the Qianlong period, the population of the whole country officially exceeded 200 million, and it soared to 400 million in the 13th year of Daoguang on the eve of the Opium War (1833).
