		In the first meaning of the term, the Dioula are only a sub-group of the Mande, located by ethnologists and linguists in the country’s Northeastern horn, between the Lobi, the Koulango and the Senoufo.
		With time, the notion of Dioula is extended to the Malinke, then to all those who speak or understand the ambulant language spoken by groups of traders originating from the former central Sudan.
		Thus, taken in the broad sense of the term, the Dioula group (foreigners and Ivorians) would have amounted, in 1998, to 7,282,451 inhabitants, or 47.4 percent of the country’s overall population.

		In all cases, they used the homicide rate as a measure of the level of violence in the culture.
		They found a strong correlation between left-handedness and homicide: Cultures that were the least violent, like the Dioula, had the lowest percentage of left-handers, while those with the highest homicide rates, like the Yanomamo, had the highest left-handed percentage.
