Moulay Ismaïl is alleged to have fathered 889 children. This is widely considered the record number of offspring for any man throughout history that can be verified. It is thought that Ismaïl would have had to copulate with an average of 4.8 women per day for 40 years to achieve that number of children.

oh, for something like the black death to come along and rid the world of about 50 to 70% of us. it is what we deserve.

Different times... With 500 wives, you're going to end up with a fair number of children :)
