In brief

The largest documented number lives in Croatia: 365 people in the 2021 census.

Official figures exist for 5 countries; together they add up to 736. This is not an estimate of the world total: the censuses were held in different years (2001-2021) and define belonging differently, and countries without such data are not counted.

Main language: German. Glottolog classifies it in the Indo-European family.

Where they live: census figures

Each figure comes from the country's official census. Censuses define belonging differently (self-identification, citizenship, mother tongue, ancestry); the type is given on each row.
