Slavic and Germanic are also Indo-European languages

If I'm not mistaken, Slavic peoples (Russians and Ukranians) are also Indo-European. Maybe you might like to check it and correct the map which is otherwise inaccurate. Furthemore, Azeri people are not featured here, I would say they are Turkic too.

Yes, this is correct. Russian, Ukrainian, German, English, etc. are also Indo-European languages, just like Tajik, Ossetian, Hindi, Farsi/Persian/Iranian, Pashtun/Pashto, etc.

The map could say "Slavic" for Russian and Ukrainian and "Other Indo-European" for German and Tajik.

Or... have a larger header for "Indo-European" and then "Slavic" and "non-Slavic" for the others, etc. Something like that. However, as it is, it is misleading/confusing.

Thoses data are from the old 1989 census

The data is a bit old, it should be mentioned because it has way changed from then on some countries. For example Kyrgyzstan's population is estimated at 5.4 million in 2009, with Kyrgyz (70.9%), Uzbeks (14.3%), Russians (7.8%), Dungans (1.1%), Uyghurs (0.9%), Tajiks (0.7%),Turks (0.7%), Kazakhs (0.6%), Tatars (0.6%) and Ukrainians (0.4%) and other smaller ethnic minorities (1.6%). which make the overview of Kirgyzstan melting pot way different than in the map.--Aréat (talk) 16:04, 17 April 2011 (UTC)

Mistakes

Slavic languages are also Indo-European languages, just like German and Tajik (which is just an eastern variant of the Persian language). The cities Bukhara, Samarkand and Mazar-e Sharif are all Persian-speaking (in majority, and historically). --Lysozym (talk) 12:39, 17 March 2014 (UTC)
