Hello. Does anyone have information on the percentage of soldiers in the A-H military during the First World War by ethnic background ? For example, Austrians -xx%, Hungarians - xx%, etc. and how do these numbers compare with the ethnic percentage of the Empire as a whole ? Thank you all in advance.

Have a look at Glenn Jewison's excellent site, especially the ethnicity section shown at the bottom of the page at http://www.austro-hungarian-army.co.uk/orb14.htm

If you haven't seen this before it is for 1911 and shows the distribution geographically:
