Explanation:

Because China’s been the most populated state in the planet for long before the one-child policy - estimates put Chinese population on 1500 at 125 million. For context, the world population was 438 million.

This is due to intensive cultivation of one of the largest arable land areas on the planet (India’s got the largest, in case you wonder).

Russian landmass, as you might guess, is cold and a good fraction of their lands aren’t really usable. Africa has the Sahara Desert taking up 1/3 of its area already with rainforests in the Congo taking up a good fraction of the rest (rainforest soils are poor for farming). Dry savannah and the Sahel region aren’t ideal for farming, either.

Granted, Chinese landmass is reduced by the Gobi and the Tibetan Plateau, but overall they have more fertile land.
