Source and methods

Country totals derived by summing UNHCR country-pair records, including unregistered counterpart codes. Refugees and pending asylum seekers remain separate. These are not all forcibly displaced people or asylum applications. Any nonnumeric/suppressed contribution makes its country total unavailable; absent country-years are not invented as zero. Source counts may be rounded or redacted; reported zeros do not establish absence. Derived exports have an empty originalRow because a total combines multiple source rows; the note retains the original annual-source hash and grouping fields.
