THE LAST ETHNIC CENSUS DATA PROVIDED WAS IN 1951 WHICH WAS NOT RELEVANT BY MANY FACTORS. DEMOGRAPHY IN GREECE IS WORK OF STATE QUESTION No.1. ALSO THERE IS NO CENSUS DATA FOR THE GYPSY IN GREECE WHICH ARE RECOGNISED BY THE COUNCIL OF EUROPE LIKE IS THE CASE OF MACEDONIAN PARTY VINOZITO AND OTHER CULTURAL ASSOCIATIONS. Aromunes and Arvanites, also Sarakatsani and Slavophones Greeks are counted like Greeks and they do not recognised them like separate communities
- That still means: no reliable data. You are guessing on modern-day "ethnic distribution" based on pre-1951 numbers (from 60 years ago!!!!), for which you don't provide any source either. You don't mention which census you are basing this on, you don't mention any published estimates on modern minorities, nor anything published in relevant scholarship, of which there is a lot out there. This map contravenes almost every principle of scientific research. Plus, in your own nationalistic zeal to have as little blue on the map as possible, you label the Pontic Greeks, the Asia Minor refugees and the Karamanlis as being somehow distinct from the Greeks. Consequently, that is not an "ethnic composition" map, it is an exercise in "proving" that northern Greece is not Greek at all... Constantine ✍ 09:23, 8 December 2012 (UTC)
