There are about 20,000,000 Greeks in the world on the basis of their ethnicity. Eleven million of them are officially 'Greeks' who live in Greece and have the Greek nationality. An additional three million in the US claim Greek ancestry, as do two million people in Turkey. Add to that an educated guess about every other person of Greek descent who is at least 25% Greek (many countries simply don't keep track) living elsewhere in the world, and "somewhere over twenty million" is a conservative guess.
