1279;Maures;Sunni;farmers;;;;1
1761;Maures;Sunni;farmers;;;;1

Looks actually pretty straightforward.
the first number is the province and the last number is the population in thousands. A 1000 size pop is equal to 4000 people in total population. So if a province has

x,y,z,,,1
a,b,c,,,3

then it has two pops with 4000 total size and 16000 total population.

Please note that I have not modded Vicky yet, but that is how I would read the file.
