The geographical area in which unionists are a majority is less than half of Northern Ireland (see graphic below), but eastern areas have a much higher population density. Collectively, Northern Ireland is split, with unionists comprising approximately 50% of the population, and falling slowly. At the last general election unionists secured precisely 50% of the seats.
