Biggest ethnic cleansing campaigns in history

Some of this numbers may be controversial, but my aim is not to rank countries. I want to present tragic events in human history, which everyone should know.

Here some informations where the Numbers come from:

1. The Partition of India I have seen a lot of Numbers 11 millions, 14 millions, 20 millions and 10 - 20 millions i took 15 millions as the middle

3. Theoraticlly would it been during the Bangladesh Liberation War, but I prefered this name so nobody thinks that the Bengali nationalist did it.

4. There had been more than 1 million Jews from eastern Europe who fled from the german army probably the number was closer to 2 million with western Europe but I could not find a source proving that.

5. I used the numbers given by the russian goverment as a source. according to them a bit less than 13.7 million russians died under german occupation. 4.1 million died of diseases, famines and old age and 2.1 were jews already included in the 6 million holocaust deaths.

7. The Japaneses one was really hard. I excluded the Chinese who died through famine, therefore it seems like 6 million is a realistic estimate for Japanese war crimes casulties.
