Demographics

Ethnic Russians constitute less than one-third of the total population at 2,854,040 (30.26%) according to the 2010 Census, but constitute a majority of 80% in Stavropol Krai and are at least 20% of the population in North Ossetia, Kabardino-Balkaria, and Karachay-Cherkessia. A diverse assortment of mostly Muslim Chechen speaking ethnic and tribal groups form the remainder, and the North Caucasus Federal District is Russia's only Muslim-majority district.
