Note how Bellah are only counted in Goundam Cercle? Same sources estimate as much as %90 of population north of the river were enslaved. See Martin Klein's work on slavery in the AOF. The sedentary bonded populations, here marked as "Tuareg" identify as Bellah now (and likely did then). Consequently, using this to generate charts that show "Tuareg Majorities" in most of these areas is misleading -- and so obviously to any Malian that it can only be intentionally misleading.
