USSR nationality redistribution by republic, 1979-1989: from published results of the 1989 all-Union census
Abstract:
"An additional report on the results of the 1989 population census...describes changes in the ethnic composition of Soviet republics and other major regions (e.g., Siberia), as well as changes in the spatial distribution of the country's major ethnic groups. Data from the major 1989 Goskomstat source publication are refined and supplemented by information from more recent sources. Coverage is in a format similar to the reported ethnic results of the 1979 population census...to facilitate comparability."

Testing a Claim about Population Proportion
There are two methods of testing a claim about a population proportion: (1) Using the sample proportion from the data where a binomial distribution is approximated to the normal distribution and (2) Using the binomial probabilities calculated from the data.
The first method uses normal distribution as an approximation to the binomial distribution. The requirements are as follows: sample size is large...
