Console command to increase population

[Karcel]

I always liked to play around with console commands in paradox games.
But I just can't figure out how to increase the population. Is there no way to do it? I found some population related commands but all they do is change their status. I just want more people thats it.

changestatepop [state_id] [pop_type / all] [factor]

- Changes the pop size of the given pop type ( can be 'all' ) by at most the given factor. Will be capped by max employment for each pop.

I have not used this but it may be what you are looking for.

Alternatively, you can also start with a higher pop by creating your own mod. But you will need to increase the available arable land in the region to compensate so that there will be subsistence farms to feed them from the beginning of your game.
