Global Pattern Formation and Ethnic/Cultural Violence
Prediction of regions of ethnic violence in the former Yugoslavia (red overlay)
by an agent model (colored dots as agents) based upon the population distribution of
ethnic groups in 1991. The prediction map is shown in the context of a geospatial map of Europe.
