-14 % is not true

I’m not denying the ethnic cleansing, before anyone starts crying, but this map is absolute dogshit. 50% of Bosnia was displaced, which Bosnia? Bosniak, Croatian, or Serb? 14% of Croatia, which Croatians, the Croat of Serb ones? Were 15% of Macedonians displaced? Does the 9% in Serbia represent Serbs from Kosovo or the Sandzak Bosniaks and Vojvodina Croats? It is literally meaningless.

Edit: If anyone is curious about the actual percentages of minorities displaced, the map would be a lot less interesting but it is 90%-97% for each entity in the war, with the only differences being Croats from Bosniak controlled territory and vice versa, where it is much lower, and Croatia proper (not RSK) from which about 70% of Serbs were displaced. Not all of it was ethnic cleansing, of course, but those are the changes.

Point is, other than just being shit, it also severely under-represents how bad the ethnic changes actually were.

What’s surprising is how these countries ended up recovering from the war despite having massive emigration and low birth rates. They aren’t rich by any means, but they have experienced solid economic growth and can be considered middle-income.

Hard to grasp these numbers until you realize each percent here is thousands of families losing everything
