Population of Austria: Bosnia and Herzegovina 1879-1910

Between 1879 and 1910, most of modern-day Bosnia and Herzegovina (then known as Hercegovina) was a part of the Austro-Hungarian Empire. The data has been shown in a bar graph as the intervals are inconsistent, however from looking at the data we can see that the population grew gradually over this 31 year period, from 1.16 million people in 1879 to 1.90 million in 1910. Perhaps the most surprising thing in the graph is the disparity between the ratio of men to women. From 1885 to 1910 there is almost 100 thousand more men than women in Bosnia Hercegovina, although it is not clear whether this is an error in the data collection process, or a natural abnormality.
