There hasn't been a similar experience in a developed country since WW2. Think of it now as losing about 1.5 million people if we account for demographic changes in the US. It is like the equivalent of losing the entire population of Philadelphia in less than 3 years.
In war death tolls, that's still really good, all things considered.
Romans lost something like 50-75% of their population during the early expansion/Italian conquest I think.
Depends on whose numbers you are using but it's 33% at the high end, and probably closer to 20%.

Might have been "50% of the male population", I can't recall, but 50% would put it near 25% total pop.
not a doctor, not a lawyer, examples I use may not be fully researched so don't take out of context plz, don't @ me
Wait rome only has 3 million people in it? That seems really low.
Usually for megacities you have to include the metro area.
But we tend to forget a megacity is like like anything over about 2.5 million. Though I think density is probably a better indicator than pure population.

Some of the megacity areas are ridiculous. Like isn't the greater Tokyo area like over 30 million?
Russia in WW2 is the one that shocks me not only were they a country at the end they were a super power.
The amount of people lost is just insane as a percentage of the population. And it is your most productive members that were lost to.
Top it off Stalin basically killed another huge chunk afterwards.
Looking at the industrialization of Russia in the interwar period is kind of amazing. I did a post in the history thread about Albert Kahn and his role. But they basically embraced the shit out of Fordism and went from having a couple of factories capable of making a dozen tractors a year in the 1920s and no automobile industry to being able to produce about ~300,000 Tanks, SPGs, and other ground vehicles during the war. They went from no aircraft industry to producing over 130,000 planes during the war.

Greater Tokyo (so suburbs included) is 37 million people. It has a density of 2,631 people per square kilometer.
To compare to NYC's metro area is 23 million people and a density of 688 people per square kilometer.

It's tiny but exists
It's higher if you, eg, need to put all your divisions in training because they are sub-green level when you deployed them
Worst game ever invented?
My desktop computer is called Kubrick on the network.
This is why you shouldn't work for Kylo Ren.

Nope, Rome still exists and y'know - Italy.
don't tell the pope
There are 3 million people in Rome who need to be informed of their state of non-existence
I'm sure they'll be thrilled
My home machine is Neuromancer. My NAS is Daedalus and my netbook is Icarus.
Probably not the most original naming convention.
that's what The pope wants you to think.

Solaire, Vendrick, Qualana, Alvina. The networks are Nexus (2.4) Firelink (5.0) and Majula (WiFi extender).
To quote Alex Jones goblins all of them are goblins
Well if you include all the cherubs it's more like 12 million.

If i can't see it it doesn't exist

It's about the same as Paris and Berlin
Then you've got London with 9 million, because London is awful
Vatican City: 11.78 popes per square mile.
810 per square kilometer.
Good density there too.
Man, the DFW has 6.7 million
Suck it, Rome

I woke up at like 5 and went back to bed and wish I could sleep more
And the sounds of the crowd in downtown rome are the result of aluminum foil being shaken and a harmonica
They would have gotten away with it without the Scooby gang
