What factors caused India and China to have such large populations?

I know they are relatively large countries that have been inhabited for a very long time, but so is Europe if taken as a whole. Yet Europe only has about half as many people as just one of these two countries. What historical factors lead to their massive populations?

Lots of sex because our ancestors didn’t have anything else to do. Plus, more children = more earning members. Plus, a want for male children. So if a female child is born, they again have sex to get a male child. If no, then again. Also, it was a culture to have lots of children back in the days.

Now, the ruling party encourages Hindus to have more children to compete with Muslims.

So, yeah, that’s how we have a 1.3 billion population.
