  1. Figures in each row, which are calculated based on Tables 2 and 6, represent percentages by which provinces that are linked by the left-side ethnic group would increase (or decrease if the figures are negative) bilateral trade as opposed to those that are not linked by the same ethnic group. Blank denotes unavailability since either the ethnic variables are omitted from the regressions or the estimated coefficients are statistically insignificant in Table 6
