From the 1600s through the 1800s, the center of military power in Europe shifted eastward, from France to Germany to Russia, following the demographic center

China, Russia and India have had the demographic advantage for the last thousand years. I would also note that France (Napoleon) and England (British Empire) did not-so-bad during the latter part of the period in question, and they are among the westernmost parts of Eurasia. Might there be a few more variables involved?
