Syria's estimated pre–Syrian Civil War 2011 population was 22 ±.5 [1] one thousand thousand permanent inhabitants, which included 21,124,000 Syrians,[2] as well every bit 1.3 million Iraqi refugees[3] and over 500,000 Palestinians.[3] The war makes an authentic count of the Syrian population difficult, equally the numbers of Syrian refugees,[4] internally displaced Syrians and casualty numbers are in flux. The CIA World Factbook showed an estimated 20.4m people every bit of July 2021.[five] Of the pre-war population, 6 million are refugees outside the state, seven million are internally displaced, three million live in insubordinate-held territory, and 2 one thousand thousand live in the Kurdish-ruled Autonomous Administration of Northward and East Syria.

Well-nigh modernistic-solar day Syrians are described every bit Arabs by virtue of their modern-twenty-four hour period language and bonds to Arab culture and history. Genetically, Syrian Arabs are a variety of diverse Semitic-speaking groups indigenous to the region.[half-dozen] [7] [8] [9] With around ten% of the population, Kurds are the second biggest ethnic group in Syria, followed by Turkmen.

Forced displacement [edit]

More than than six million refugees left the land during the civil war,[10] of whom over v 1000000 are registered equally refugees past the UNHCR as of mid-2019.[eleven] Most of them fled to neighboring countries such as Turkey,[12] [13] Lebanon, Jordan,[14] and Iraq,[xv] every bit well equally European nations like Greece, Germany and Sweden. Since 2017, around 49 percent of the Population lives in poverty.[16]

The war resulted in big-scale displacement in the country. The UNHCR estimates internally displaced people (IDPs) at vii million. A further lxx,000 people were trapped on the border with Hashemite kingdom of jordan at Rukban in 2016–xviii,[17] [18] with up to 40,000 still there in 2019.[xix]

A meaning part of the population lives in territory outside government sovereignty. At its peak in 2015, ISIL ruled over ten 1000000 people across Syrian arab republic and Iraq.[20] The Democratic Administration of North and East Syria (NES), commonly referred to as Rojava, has a population of around ii 1000000.[21] Areas controlled by the opposition have had a population in the millions. In mid-2017, Un OCHA estimated that around 540,000 persons were trapped in besieged areas every bit of June 2017, the majority besieged by government forces in Eastern Ghouta.[22] By the fourth dimension the government retook Ghouta in April 2018, some 140,000 individuals had fled their homes and up to 50,000 were evacuated to Idlib and Aleppo governorates.[23] The latter rebel areas had an estimated population of 3 one thousand thousand (xl% of them displaced from defeated rebel areas).[24] [25] Fighting in Idlib has led to further displacements, of up to 250,000 people, and generating new refugee outflows to neighbouring Turkey.[26]

Displacement has led to demographic shifts. I example is the area in the Due north under control by Kurdish-led and US-backed Syrian Democratic Forces (SDF). Many homo rights groups, including Amnesty International[27] and international organizations[28] [29] take accused SDF forces of committing ethnic cleansing in Arab areas they were capturing from other war factions.[xxx] The accusation was repeated on 8 May 2019 by Russian federation's foreign minister Sergey Lavrov.[31] NGOs and the opposition have besides accused the authorities of using the conflict to affect demographic restructuring.[32] [33] [34] [35]

Birth-expiry rate [edit]

In April 2016, the UN estimated that 400,000 people had died in the war,[36] and casualties have connected since, with estimates for the total dead by mid-2019 of upwardly to 220,000 civilians, 175,000 government combatants, and 174,000 anti-government combatants (run across Casualties of the Syrian Ceremonious War).

Race and ethnicity [edit]

On 1 January 2011, Syria was estimated to accept a population of 24 million people, distributed over its 14 governorates.[48] Arabs represent 80-85% of the population, with the rest being a mixture of many ethnic and religious sects, as shown in the table below:

Indigenous and religious groups % of Syrian population[48] Notes[48]
Syrian Arabs 80–85% The Arabs form the majority in all districts except for the Al-Hasakah Governorate.
Kurds 10% The majority of Kurds are Sunni Muslims, with a Yazidi minority; concentrated in Syrian Kurdistan region and major urban centres outside that region.
Turkmen/Turkoman 4–5% Descendants of indigenous Turks, rather than Turkmens. These figures exclude the Arabic-speaking Turks. Only approximately 30% of Turkmen speak a Turkic language. The majority are Sunni Muslims.
Assyrians 3–four% Most Assyrians are Christians.
Circassians one.5% The majority of Circassians are Sunni Muslims.
Armenians 1% The majority of Armenians are Christians.
Smaller groups of Albanians, Greeks, Persians and Chechens, among others <0.9% (combined) A significant number of these indigenous groups are Arabized, particularly those that adhere to Islam.

The CIA World Factbook cites the following figures for ethnic groups equally at July 2018: approximately Arab 50%, Alawite 15%, Kurd 10%, Levantine 10%, other 15% (includes Druze, Ismaili, Imami, Nusairi, Assyrian, Turkmen, Armenian and Chechens).[5] However, Professor John A. Shoup said in 2018 that Kurds made ix% of the population, followed past Turkish-speaking Turkmen comprising 4-five% , Assyrians 4%, Armenians 2%, and Circassians about 1% of the total population.[49]

Religion in Syria (est. 2021)[50]

There has been no Syrian census including a question about religion since 1960, these are thus the last official statistics bachelor:[51]

In 1991 Professor Alasdair Drysdale and Professor Raymond Hinnebusch said that some 85% of Syrians were Muslims and that the residuum were about all Christians, notwithstanding, both religious groups were subdivided into many ethnic sects.[52] Amidst the former, approximately 75% of Syrians were Sunni Muslim, of whom, 60% were Standard arabic-speaking and the remainder of Sunnis included Kurds eight.v%, Turkmen/Turkoman 3%, and Circassians (less than 1%).[52] In add-on, Alawis formed 5.5%, Druze 3% and Ismailis 1.5% of the population. In regards to the Christians, they were subdivided into the Greek Orthodox 4.seven%, Armenians 4% and Assyrians i%.[52]

According to Pierre Beckouche, earlier 2011, Sunni Muslims accounted for 78% of Syria'due south population, which included 500,000 Palestinian refugees and the non-Arab Sunni Muslims, namely the Kurds nine-x% and the Turkmen/Turkoman four%.[53] Other Muslims included Shias and Alawites 11%-sixteen%, whilst the Christians fabricated up 6% of the population.[53] There were as well a few Jewish communities in Aleppo and Damascus.[53]

The CIA World Factbook cites the following figures for religious groups: religions - Muslim 87% (official; includes Sunni 74% and Alawi, Ismaili, and Shia xiii%), Christian 10% (mainly of the Greek Orthodox and Greek Catholic churches[54] - may be smaller equally a result of Christians fleeing the country), Druze 3%.[5]

The first census which focused on the sectarian distribution was carried out in 1932 under the French mandate, however, this demography was just carried out in the lands nether the short-lived Regime of Latakia (the Alawite State established by the French) which covered but 7,000 kmii (ii,700 sq mi) out of modern Syrian arab republic'due south total expanse of 185,000 kmtwo (71,000 sq mi).[55] A full general demography of Syria in 1943 gave details of religious groups of the population and the rate of growth of each and estimates of the population in 1953 from an unnamed source were every bit follows:

1943 census[55] [56] 1953 demography[55] Growth[55]
Sunnis 1,971,053 (68.91%) two,578,810 (seventy.54%) 31%
Shi'ites 12,742 (0.45%) 14,887 (0.41%) 17%
Alawites 325,311 (11.37%) 398,445 (10.90%) 22%
Ismailis 28,527 (1.00%) 36,745 (1.01%) 29%
Druze 87,184 (3.05%) 113,318 (3.10%) 30%
Yezidi 2,788 (0.10%) 3,082 (0.08%) xi%
Total Muslims ii,427,605 (84.87%) three,145,287 (86.03%) 30%
Jews 29,770 (1.04%) 31,647 (0.87%) 6%
Christians 403,036 (14.09%) 478,970 (13.10%) 19%

Literacy rate [edit]

Educational activity is free and compulsory from ages half dozen to 11. Schooling consists of 6 years of master education followed by a three-year general or vocational training menses and a iii-year academic or vocational program. The 2nd 3-year period of academic training is required for academy admission. Total enrollment at post-secondary schools is over 150,000. The literacy rate of Syrians aged 15 and older is 86.0% for males and 73.vi% for females.[57]

Languages [edit]

Standard arabic is the official, and virtually widely spoken, language. Standard arabic speakers make up 85% of the population. Several modern Standard arabic dialects are used in everyday life, most notably Levantine in the westward and Mesopotamian in the northeast. A report published by the UNHCR points out that "while the bulk of Syrians are considered Arabs, this is a term based on spoken communication (Arabic), not ethnicity."[58]

Co-ordinate to The Encyclopedia of Standard arabic Language and Linguistics, in addition to Arabic, the post-obit languages are spoken in the country, in gild of the number of speakers: Kurdish,[59] Turkish,[59] Neo-Aramaic (iv dialects),[59] Circassian,[59] Chechen,[59] Armenian,[59] and finally Greek.[59] None of these languages have official condition.[59]

Many educated Syrians also speak English and French.[60] [61]
