{{Population distribution
 |title =
 |distribution =
 |region1 = 
 |pop1 = 
 |ref1 =
 |total1 = 
 |region2 = 
 |pop2 = 
 |total2 = 
 ...
 }}

Add as many sets of |region#=, |pop#=, |total#=, |ref#= as required (up to a maximum of 39)

For an embeddable box:

{{Population distribution
 |embed = yes
 |distribution=
 |region1 = 
 |pop1 = 
 |total1 = 
 |ref1 =
 |region2 = 
 |pop2 = 
 |total2 = 
 ...
 }}

• embed: if set to any value, allows the box to be embedded within another box (such as {{Infobox ethnic group}})
• For each row of data, replace # with the row number in the following parameters:
  • region#: region for which population distribution is shown – templates such as {{flag}} may be used – required
  • pop#: population of subject population within the region – required
  • total#: total population within the region – required
