    Are all non-ghoul wastelanders descendants of Vault Dwellers, Las Vegans, Little Lamplighters, and Enclave members?

    I was recently thinking about all the people we see in the Fallout games. Despite the great war decimating a huge chunk of the population, humanity has rebounded to a point where they have enough people to start several individual nations. It made me wonder how all the wastelanders we see, ancestors survived The Great War. At first I thought they were all descendants of Vault Dwellers but then I realized that the vaults had at most only a 1,000 occupants and only 17 of those vaults were control vaults and the ones that weren't control vaults were not exactly designed with survival in mind. That means that if all the vaults were full (which most weren't) the day of the Great War only 17,000 people would leave those vaults 25 years later. I know that they'd have a lot of descendants after 200 years but is it really enough to produce all the people we see wandering the waste. But then I remembered that people survived the great war in other places like New Vegas, Little Lamplight, and the Enclave compounds. But I'm still not sure if that is enough to produce all the people we see wandering the waste. They were only 82 students who took cover in Little Lamplight, Las Vegas currently has a population of 644,000 and how many of their own did the Enclave save.

    The Fallout Wiki mentions that "A few citizens took shelter where they could: sewers, subway stations, drainage centers, Pulowski Preservation shelters, or in the case of the Keller family, the National Guard depot. However, without a very strong outer shield of dense metal or rock to defend them from both the heat and kinetic shock wave of the nuclear blasts, few civilians survived the all-out nuclear exchange." Even ones who did survive the initial explosion like the Keller family died soon after by leaving the shelter before it was safe to do so. But were there any people who survived the Great War in a place that was not listed above and survived long enough to have offspring off their own. Did anybody take cover in a cave (or somewhere else safe) and not come out until it was all clear outside? Where else did people take cover from the bombs?

    Do ghouls breathe? If so, could they be affected by stuff like dying from suffocation or chemical weapons?

    I ask this because ghoul anatomy can be very inconsistent at times. Ghouls are shown to be mere irradiated humans with a few mutations, but in fallout 4, a few appear to come out of the water near the fish factory. That among other things caused discussion in a discord group I am in about if modern riot techniques, or say, WW1 chemical weapons would even be useful in containing them.

    Why aren’t snallygasters found outside of Appalachia

    For anyone that knows this or might know it it says in a loading screen that they were made by the FEV virus but supermutants were to but we see them everywhere so why don't we see snallygasters everywhere did the events of 76 cause them not to move outside of Appalachia or did we just keep the population from growing so there was always room in only Appalachia for them?
