__TOC__

== Incorrect population estimations. ==

The Second source ( Clogg 2013) as to the number of Greeks worldwide is unreliable, and within its composition states that the information it lists is unreliable. In addition, the figures for individual nations are erroneous and exaggerated, often different from what the source placed beside them posits.

I am not sure why Authors are trying to bloat the number of extant Greeks, but even if by only a few million, the inaccuracy erodes the trustworthiness of Misplaced Pages as a source of reliable information.

Population estimations should be garnered from Greek government sources, Hellenic organizations and the CIA world factbook.
