Map Description:
Español: Mapa de los subgrupos dialectales del Quechua.

English: This map shows the dialectal sub-groups of Quechua.
It is estimated that, including all dialects, there are about 10 million Quechua speakers - this number is contested, however, due to underreporting and migration. The largest known concentration is in Peru where the 1993 census estimated their speaker population to be around 3.2 million.
