Hi /sci/ I am curious as to how many people you would need for a successful gene pool. The reason I ask is because we live in an ever-changing world full of chaos. And I want to know how many people you would need to have your people survive in case of a disaster. (Black Death, Nuclear Annihilation, Huge Space Rock, etc.)
I have been doing some research into the matter and found that small numbers of people (in the dozens) can successfully survive for thousands of years.

There are some tribes that have survived tens of thousands of years with as little as 20-30 people.
What number of people would you recommend /sci/?
