UN data

- Asylum applications in Europe: 512,909 as of September 2015 (recent media reports put the number as 750 thousands)
Internally displaced
7.6 million according to internal-displacement.org as of July 2015
Total population
About 23 million by wikipedia and estimated to be about the same elsewhere 1 2.
This makes roughly about half of population in either refugee or internally displaced status...
(PS. Before the war, there were many refugees from Iraq in Syria)
