The game map and the real map: what EU5 simplifies, sentence 12

Population numbers in EU5 are estimates, because there were few real censuses, official counts of the people, in 1337 and historians argue about the figures; England's Domesday Book of 1086, a count of land and households made for taxes, was an unusual record for its time.

Who acts: Population numbers, few real censuses, historians, Domesday Book · What happens: be, argue, make · To what, where: estimates, 1337, count, unusual record
