SPQR - Ashville West - Virgina Bella - White Giant
The life expectancy of my country hasn't increased and seems abnormally low (43), despite the fact that my health and social security indexes are well above what is required. This has meant that my population is shrinking considerable every month. I recently invaded a C3 with lower indexes than mine, but mysteriously has a life expectancy of around 80.
Why is this and what can I do about it. |

When I first started the game, my country's average age was 35 and its life expectancy was 34. I think you should wait a bit, this is a time-changing cycle. Don't be fooled by looks. Now look my country for population rates if you have more questions you can write me FB:Flatschi |

There is a process in all countries with low population owned by free players.
The process will slowly, as people age slowly, increase the numbers in younger age groups.
Then of course it will shift to older age groups.
You see the graphs of the younger groups show an increase.
You see death rates and numbers decline.
we have recently increased birth rates a bit to allow the population in these countries to reach up to 20 millions. but again, it will take time.
In full member countries the birth rates are much higher and numbers increase although it also takes time.
they can reach 100+ millions but not overnight.
People in a hurry, buy 1 million of population for 6 gold coins.
I am mentioning it but in no way call on you to do so. |

Having waited for a further week, I can confirm that this is not the case.
There has actually been a decrease in lifespan during this time, even though the health index is still above what is required.
Please may you fix this. |

I look at countries every week and I see the spread between average age and life expectancy increasing.
Such changes are slow because the countries have a low birth rate.
The most meaningful improvement in most of them is the increase in numbers in the age groups 0-21.
it is spreading.
I will look into your country a little later and come back with a response. |

I just checked.
the younger groups are growing and as they become several years older, the growth has spread to other age groups, up to 18 now, and it will keep going up the age groups.
It is slow. 4 years in the game is 8 days.
It might take 20 game years.
but as I said before, population growth is very slow in free accounts countries.
It jumps in full member countries. (not pushing you anywhere, this is a privilege for full member accounts).
we have and continue to boost countries with small population. each upgrade in the past months did boost birth rates.
the next one, today will do so again.
we hope that free president countries and countries without a president will increase their population to a level of 20 millions but it will take time. |
