lol.
That depends, of course, on whether they are all located more or less in the same region.
I suppose you could ‘cheat’ if a number of them were geneticists with the infrastructure to support them in their efforts to sustain a smaller population.
With only a couple of thousand people,though, they would be set back in their , economic and social development…because every type of infrastructure a larger population depends upon would be gone…everything from toilet paper to vehicles to home repair to you name it, it all disappears. They’d be thrown back to sustenance farming, if not hunter gatherer groups.
If that happened in this story, after a few thousand years, the only thing left would be the towers…and a few ruins of certain types of megalithic structures. …or some of the artifacts which were found underground and in caves.
In his ‘back story,’ James has built a very rich and complete world, here. Overall, it’s logically consistent and avoids many of the inconsistencies found in other fictional worlds and universes. Population viability has been one of those problems he has also avoided, imo.
Infact, most do not seem to grasp that concept, maybe James learned from their error?
