The Christians in the Trabzon Vilayet and the Black sea coast were mostly Greeks.
In the areas south of the Trabzon Vilayet and the Black Sea coast the Christians were mostly Armenians. In some areas with less than 25% Christians, the Christians were less than 15% or less than 5%. But that is not shown on the map.
