   FIRST TO THE POINT :Greetings again Adrian. I hope you have done some studies or/if not it would be enough for you to only read this. So after alot of reaserches i have done ... I think the total Serb world population figure finally deserves a change, so that next fact becomes clear: that more than 8 million Serbs reside in former Yugoslavia and Balkans(~6 in Serbia sans. Kosovo) and more than 2.1 million in the Balkans region (exc. Kosovo) -check this source: http://www.b92.net/eng/news/society-article.php?yyyy=2011&mm;=02&dd;=11&nav;_id=72658 )... and another 3-4 million in the Diaspora. This refference (like many others) states there are 3,5 million Serbs in diaspora and states where (please read it): http://www.mail-archive.com/serbiannewsnetwork@yahoogroups.com/msg06589.html . Therefore up to 12 million total on this planet.   MY CALCULATIONS :Now... you can check my count done by online calculator..I have done the count by myself, but you can do it yourself again if you want: we get ca. 8,204,314 Serbs in Balkans   SRB- 5,988,150 (exc. Kosovo) + BiH- 1,6 mil. (since it was between 1,5 and 1,7 i chose a mid number) + CRO- 186,633 + MNE- 178,110 (didnt use this number: (265,895 Native Serbian speakers)) + SLO- 38,964  + MAC- 35,939 + ROM- 22,518 + GRE- 10,000 + ALB- 4,000 (eventough some estimations say there could be up to 30.000) and + KOSOVO- 140,000 = ca. 8,204,314 Serbs in the whole region.  Now add the estimated 3.5 million in diaspora (All other parts of the world) to that one of serbia and region figure.   8,204,314 + 3.500.000 = ca. 11,704,314 Serbs in the world -   Its funny that my count is quite similar to a figure here: http://www.joshuaproject.net/peoples.php?peo3=14864 (eventough not too reliable source perhaps).   CONCLUSION :(please note: that if 3,5 million figure is estimated for people who have immigrated/or originate from Rep. of Serbia alone, then number of serbian diaspora would be much higher including those Serbs who immigrated/originate from Bosnia and Croatia for example- but since we found no such information, we can state there are ~3,5 mil. Serbs overall from whole region in the diaspora). After all of my efforts,reaserches, and infos i have posted; do you agree and could you change the figure to that one i/or you calculated?  (  )
