https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Famine https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Famine Here's a cut n paste Chinese scholars had kept count of 1,828 instances of famine from 108 BC to 1911 in one province or another—an average of close to one famine per year.[50] From 1333 to 1337 a terrible famine killed 6 million Chinese. The four famines of 1810, 1811, 1846, and 1849 are said to have killed no fewer than 45 million people.[51] Japan experienced more than 130 famines between 1603 and 1868.[52]
