1.For six quanta of energy in Solid A and two in Solid B, there are 9,702 microstates.

比布六个量子能量在固体A中， 两个量子能量在固体B中，这就有9702种微态。

2.If we assume that each microstate is equally likely, we can see that some of the energy configurations have a higher probability of occurring than others.

果我们假设每种微态 发生相等，我们可以发现有些能量布发生会高于其他。

3.And that is the fact that Ireland is the only country in the world right now outside of minor islands and microstates that has a smaller population today than it did 200 years ago back in the 19th century.

这个事实就是，爱尔兰是目前世界上除小岛屿和微型国家外唯一一个人口少于 200 年前 19 世纪人口国家。
