World Building June Day 3: Who?

It's World-Building June!  So I'm building Worlds!  Aerax/Expectant Woods over on Patreon, and Bear Empire and a new thing here!

It's also June WorldBuilding - so we're getting two sets of prompts.  After I exhaust the answers I've written, I might just default to Inspector Caracal's questions.



Bear Empire
(The setting for Carrone and Deline, Chased in the Bear Empire)

People!

Actually, that’s a very good question.

I don’t know about non-human sentient races yet.  If they exist, they probably are either completely integrated into society or they live off in their own little corners.

150,000 of 300 million is 0.05% — 1/2,000 — not 5%, which would be a devastating 1/20 per year. A 5% annual attrition rate would likely mean zero net population if it's possible to maintain maximum available human reproduction of about one child per couple per year.

Setting up a society with a 5% attrition rate might be interesting, but I think the society would be doomed.

I can’t math! Sigh!! Thank you, that makes a lot more sense.

Going in to fix that once I’m at work
