What made the world population increase so drastically after 1900?

536 views

Excuse me, if this is the wrong sub for this but I’m genuinly confused. According to [this graph](https://flic.kr/p/5T5hkE) I found by accident, the world population barely increased at all between 1300 and 1900. And then it suddenly took off like crazy. What caused this sudden fast increment of the world population?

Vaccines and modern medicines, coupled with improved transport.

That’s the thing with exponential growth: you don’t see it until it’s too late.
