I want to make use of vicky map for a HoI2 mod. From the pop files, how can the population of a province be calculated? I need this to calculate the province MP.

Here an example of a pop file:

Province;Nationality;Religion;Workforce;Ideology;Consciousness;Militancy;Size
1279;Maures;Sunni;farmers;;;;1
1761;Maures;Sunni;farmers;;;;1
1769;Maures;Sunni;farmers;;;;1
1770;Maures;Sunni;farmers;;;;2
1770;Maures;Sunni;slaves;;;;1
1771;Maures;Sunni;farmers;;;;2
1771;Maures;Sunni;slaves;;;;1
1771;Fulbe;Sunni;farmers;;;;2
1771;Fulbe;Sunni;farmers;;;;1
1772;Maures;Sunni;farmers;;;;1
1781;Maures;Sunni;aristocrats;;;;1
1781;Maures;Sunni;officers;;;;1
1781;Maures;Sunni;clergymen;;;;1
1781;Maures;Sunni;farmers;;;;3
1781;Maures;Sunni;slaves;;;;2
1781;Maures;Sunni;farmers;;;;6
1784;Maures;Sunni;farmers;;;;1
1787;Mande;Sunni;farmers;;;;1
 
Looks actually pretty straightforward.
the first number is the province and the last number is the population in thousands. A 1000 size pop is equal to 4000 people in total population. So if a province has

x,y,z,,,1
a,b,c,,,3

then it has two pops with 4000 total size and 16000 total population.

Please note that I have not modded Vicky yet, but that is how I would read the file.
 
I have recalculated, it's true.

[Size] x 1.000 x 4 = population


Thank you, one step further.
