I have always wondered what would happen if France had a higher population between 1700-1900 and its effects.

1) Will the local French agricultural production be capable of feeding a higher population?

1800 (40M-60M?)
1900 (80-100m?)

2) If not, what are the alternatives to increase French population?

3) What laws/culture need to change from OTL in order for higher metro France population to happen?

4) How will this affect the French Revolutionary wars/Napoleonic wars with a higher population??

5) How will a higher French population affect the 19th Century history down from British world dominance to the formation of Germany?

6) How different will history be with higher metro France population for WW1, WW2?

7) Will France be siding with the same nations if it had a larger population?

8) How will a larger metro France population affect the Cold War?
