Missing population for almost every nation in 1936
Game Version
1.7.1
Enabled DLC
All of the above
Do you have mods enabled?
No
Description
Almost every country in Hearts of Iron 4 has missing population in 1936. This is because the devs originally used census data from 1930 instead of the data from 1936.
There are minor exceptions, the populations of France, Spain, Canada, Denmark, Norway, Finland and the Soviet Union are correct, but most populations in the game are wrong.
There is already a mod that fixes this by adding the historical population in the game: https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=1775042772
The mod makes a conservative estimate and uses data from 1935 because the game starts on 1 January 1936.
Changes:
Steps to Reproduce
1. Start Hearts of Iron 4.
2. Pick to play as any nations.
3. Look at the populations of all nations in the game.
