The ethnically diverse one does not mean racially diverse. I was just reading about this. In Africa, they count each tribe as an ethnicity.
JamesLutalo
And that would mean each European culture should count. Such as Croats, Poles, Bosniaks, Welsh, Irish, etecetera...
ShowMeBunnies
It's also hard to read if you're red green colorblind.
theDarkLordSauron
So much this I hate when things use that kind of colour gradient
algebrabot
Only if you call "black" a race. Neighbouring tribes in Ethiopia might be less closely related than people from Ireland and Greece.
Ledan
That's silly. That would a bit like counting different nationalities as ethnicities in Europe.
malachite84
Which many people would - they're ethnicities, not 'races'.
BadMrFrosty
By any of these I would still think the US would be as green as that chart gets, just from all the different Native American tribes alone.
malachite84
I guess it makes a difference if a myriad of groups are below 0.0001% of the total population.
wintermute93
Maybe that's why it says ethnically diverse instead of racially diverse.
MrStarkLord
Yeah, otherwise Canada would be pretty bland at 86% white. But this counts "English" as diversity.
alabamafutbol
yea you knew something was off when it said the US- the original melting pot nation- was not diverse
MusculusSternocleidomastoideus

kevinallover
America is ethnically diverse as well — all the various European cultures as well as the south american, black and Asian ethnicities...
BigDickPodrick
The original melting pot? I'd argue an ancient culture holds that distinction. If not a Middle Eastern empire or Egypt, then certainly Rome!
alabamafutbol
I think it's implicit in the "melting pot" moniker that youve accepted ppl's voluntary migration, not just conquer their lands & absorb them
BigDickPodrick
Regardless of the cause, melting pot as a metaphor simply refers to a mix of cultures becoming homogenised.
WhyIsItReal
Exactly. Rome didn't exactly let them keep their cultures. They forced them to be "Romans."
cegimerhange
I think by melting pot, it is meant to a global standard. They didn't have many latin americans in Rome... Or East Asians...

Polar ice caps melting: Lots of misconceptions on this. The north cap is floating ice. If it melted it wouldn't increase ocean levels. (1/?)
gablestout
Shhh!
jackbos
(9/?)
jackbos
(5/?) If the *continental* ice of Antarctica melted, it would definitely raise sea levels.
jackbos
(4/?) Most antarctic ice is on the ice shelves, which are *already* supported by the ocean. So if they melted, the wouldn't change levels.
jackbos
(6/?) But ice core samples show it hasn't melted in 60 million years. During that time, global temperature has been far higher than--
jackbos
(8/?) Oceanic level rise has almost nothing to do with melting ice caps. It's caused by heat expansion of already-liquid water in the ocean.
jackbos
(3/?) The south cap is supported by land, so it would increase ocean levels, but nowhere near as much as depicted.
jackbos
(7/?) --even the worst estimates of what modern global warming will reach. So Antarctica won't melt, no matter how bad things get.
jackbos
(2/?) Put some ice in a glass of water, note the water level, let the ice melt. You'll see the level doesn't change.
NotAmused1001
Umm...if ice is sticking out of the ocean above the level, it certainly will increase the level when it melts.
NotAmused1001
2/2 Put a huge piece of ice where it sticks out of a glass of water, fill water to top. As water melts back into glass, glass overflows.
jackbos
Nope. See for yourself. Ice floating in water displaces it's own mass of water. When it melts it becomes that same mass of water. No change.
NotAmused1001
A boat doesn't displace it's own mass in water. Ice as a solid is no different. I'm not going to argue with Imgur. I'll stick with science.
jackbos
At this point I'm fairly sure you're trolling. If so, well done. If not, talk to other people about this to learn how it works.
flamingflamingo
No it won't. Even if it's sticking out, water is still supporting that mass. It's not weightless, gravity is still pulling it down.

If you do that you get a more realistic number. Because you hear about historical people always living to what seems to be an old age for1/2

why so? DO WE HAVE ANOTHER REPUTATION? :o
CountCrow
No I just imagine it would be really intense and and/or romantic. And I could eat loads of feta cheese and Greek yoghurt afterwards. Bliss.
slagath0r
heard that before and i'm glad we give off such a cool vibe but i think it's hard to be disappointed in any sex so it's no biggie (3)
slagath0r
me and the dude may well be the only two people in Greece who can't eat feta, like hate it. I eat it when it's cooked though, i don't know
CountCrow
Woah who's the dude? Are 3 people getting in on this?
slagath0r
why, the flavor is good but with a less intense texture/smell i guess. And the pies, oh my god the feta pies <3. About the sex, i have (2)

Median age of 46.

There have been studies done on Japan because of this. A lot of young people just don't want to.
thefatlonelyjew
only because "jacking off to images created by hyper-repressed porn artists" wasn't included on the map
zerothoughtgiven
There is no color on the scale past dark blue to cover that territory...black. lets just call it black. it still isn't dark enough.
CenturianImgurian
Hmm, a nice hot pink would actually probably be better.
hencethequeef
It's actually a huge problem for them. Many young people detest the very idea of sex, and the government has no idea what to do about it.
Dominian
I can relate to that. Sex is just way to complicated, shameful and debasing to everyone involved. Also no one is offering. *4everalone*
imhoots
I know it's an effort but for the sake of humanity I volunteer to have weekly sex with all the cute Japanese girls I can. Contact me asap.
Lamech777
I hope you like yipping :P

Maybe the government could sit 18 year olds down and show them porn. Like with pandas at the zoo.
NationalistCanadianMooseWarrior
Young people detest the very idea of sex? Young as in teenager? As a teen: wat.
OSCgal
Isn't it also a problem that dating & romance in Japanese culture is so complicated? People don't want to deal with it.
TheWombatStrikesAgain
Yep. Buddy of mine went to Tokyo for one semester. He said, the country is so full of crazy social norms that some people just abandon
TheWombatStrikesAgain
certain types of social interactions.
hencethequeef
Also, I think a lot of people think it will interfere with their careers which they see as more important.
ThatOnePolarBearOnTheLeft
This. Loads of women dont seek relationships because there's still an expectation that marriage = women dropping out of work entirely.
rectalprolapse
Well, it's certainly not caused by an unhealthy perception of sexuality due to excessive tentacle porn.
rectalprolapse
Now that I think about it, I don't know what a normal amount of tentacle porn would be.
CenturianImgurian
Well, we need a unit of measure. Maybe tentacles per minute? Tentacle penetration amount per video?
rectalprolapse
Now that I think about it some more, this is more than I wanted to think about tentacle porn in the first place.

is the percentage of people having sex in japan low because they aren't having sex with each other but w/ eels and tentacles?
PumpkinMasher
Their population is actually dropping because of it.
justasomeone
there was a poll recently stating that around 50% of men and women under the age of 35 think of sex as repulsive. WOW, sucks to be them!
MyPseudoIsAlduinSkyrimStoleItFromMe
They watch too much anime.
Maelman
Clearly, they have yet to even try sex
justasomeone
i understand there are a lot of 40 year old virgins. what a sad thing.

It's because men are becoming less and less interested in sex and probably a couple other societal reasons.

Is this related to overcrowding? Is it a natural phenomenon?

I always thoughy Australia was quite Ethnically diverse.
prepareshipforludicrousspeed
The "white european" segment of the australian pie graph would be enormous. We are not ethnically diverse at all
norill
Racial diversity and ethnic diversity is a different thing. Big cities in UK and AUS might be quite diverse, but nowhere near Africa.
pittapan
I bet Russia is one of the most diverse country in the world merely because of its gigantic size
Zeefox
The creator has chosen language as a proxy for ethnicity. That's why countries like Switzerland are marked as diverse.
sirhankey
Switzerland IS ethnically diverse. A quarter of the population was born outside of Switzerland, the highest percentage worldwide.
Zeefox
Thats only slightly higher than Australia's rate, yet Ch is green and Aus is red. Linguistic diversity correlates directly with colour here
sirhankey
Just to be clear: I didn't object to your claim that linguistic data was used in the analysis. 1/2
sirhankey
It just sounded to me like you were saying CH is actually NOT ethnically diverse. 2/2
boywiththehappypenis
The map is built from this paper on fractionalization http://post.economics.harvard.edu/hier/2002papers/2002list.html
kerms
I feel like their method is organizing by how non-dominant of a majority ethnicity there is rather than the amounts of different ethnicities
doodlemcanus
Not really. 1/2 have British ancestry, 1/4 has Irish. We just think we're diverse cos we compare with our past & not the rest of the world
eggtartsandfarts
Every asian person that has gone to Australia has told me they were racially scolded in some way.
HeilMewtwo
Yeah, I'd like to see the data behind that. It made me question a lot of the other ones as well.
fleacollerindustry
It could be a situation where the data is weighted: "50% diverse" = 0/10, "100% diverse" = 10/10
clubpingu
lol ethnically, not culturally
TheInternetIsSeriousBusiness
There is certainly something fucky about this one. I too am going with the key being backwards.
bellyjean
It's not backwards - Canada's pretty diverse. I think Australia is just indicated incorrectly.
TheGrounded
Yeah, that one I'm a little skeptical of.
SpicedNipples
Same with England. i think the key is backwards
deejahweejah
I would think the US is more diverse than pakistan.
Wadup
Although the Australian one may be wrong. As most australian do not have one common ancestry.
prepareshipforludicrousspeed
I'm more surprised that Canada>>>USA in terms of diversity
JerreyRough
There's a surprising amount of diverse groups in random places. My tiny town has White Russians, Arabs, Ukrainians, Koreans, Natives...
Snarkoleptic
If you count "European white" as one single ethnicity, it's not. Capitals aren't the rest of the country. I say that living in London
AlexImguram
Same with the UK. I'm half tempted to suggest that key is the wrong way around..
Nabashin
I find it hard to believe that the Congo is more ethnically diverse than Australia...
kaatisu84
I agree - I thought UK was rather diverse!
malachite84
Nationally it's 90-92% white - but that's grouping all white was one ethnicity.
Nabashin
I find it hard to believe that the Congo is more ethnically diverse than Australia...
gmdave
Different tribes, different ethnicities. They define themselves a lot more specifically, so that is a result of it.
Nabashin
Ah, I see.
Punographer
I doubt it's the wrong way. Canada is correctly portrayed. Incorrect data on some countries maybe.
DrYoloMcSwagmasterIIIEsq
The data is skewed because this map seems to group "white" as one ethnic group while making smaller distinctions of other groups
xedative
I thought the same, but the map shows Estonia as somewhat diverse even though we are close to to 98-99% white.
DrYoloMcSwagmasterIIIEsq
This would explain why most African countries are shown as very diverse, they usually include a large number of ethnic "choices"
DrYoloMcSwagmasterIIIEsq
I think its based off of census information. So some countries count "white" as one group while Estonia counts Estonians, Russians etc
eddiebarzoon
Yeah, something definitely fucky...
Wadup
I think you have to see this relative to other countries. Australia and some european nations have 80% of the population belonging 1/?
Wadup
to a single ethnic group. While Belgium is 40% 60%. Switzerland has 3 ethnic groups. South Africa even has over 11.
DisturbedRanga
The Cities are diverse as fuck, I grew up in outback SA and never saw an Asian or African until I moved to Sydney when I was 11.
clubpingu
You a Parachilna boy ay fella
capillano
Where tho? coober pedy?
doodlemcanus
There's only about 10 people in outback SA isn't there?
alezon
Yeah I'm from Sydney and I think we are very diverse. I'd like to see the source for that one
DrYoloMcSwagmasterIIIEsq
Sydney =/= Australia. Major cities are almost always more diverse than the rest of a country
alezon
I get that and rural Australia is pretty much 100% Aussie But I still fee like it shouldn't be that low
DrYoloMcSwagmasterIIIEsq
Even other major cities in Australia are nowhere near as diverse as Sydney. Plus they count all people of European descent as one group
nagrom7
Sydney contains about 1/5 of the entire population. Most of our population lives in the major cities.
LittleAutumnLeaves
But cities also hold a large part of the population... I dunno how much, but I thought a greater % of people lived in cities than towns..?
DrYoloMcSwagmasterIIIEsq
Yes, but urbanization rates are a little unreliable, as smaller urban areas such as towns are usually much less diverse than larger ones.
LittleAutumnLeaves
Fair enough. So does the ethnically homogenous total population of towns outnumber the ethnically heterogenous total population of cities?
pawdraig
They key must be backwards, can't imagine African countries being that diverse. America would still just be average though?
norill
I can imagine. There are over 500 languages being spoken in Nigeria. There are many small tribes all over Africa.
pawdraig
Very true, top lazy to write again but look at my reply to the other guy...
Erkhyan
Madagascar here. About halfway in size between California and Texas. At least 18 native tribes and 4 noticeable non-native minorities.
Erkhyan
(and I say “at least” because I’ve noticed that the three largest tribes are actually loose confederations of vaguely similar ethnic groups)
HailSatinGodOfFabric
I really want to do a trip to Madagascar, what are some must see/do things?
pawdraig
tribes, even from their standpoint. But in other countries you'd have more nationalities. So I'm probably speaking on a looser or more
pawdraig
Yeah sorry you're very right. I guess it's kind of what what you perceive as diversity as I doubt there's much difference between those
pawdraig
ignorant version of diversity! Forgot to put numbers on the other comments.. 3/3
Erkhyan
Technically, the local tribes are so distinct that some still have strong anti-miscenegation practices. Don’t marry outside your tribe! (…)
Erkhyan
(…) On the other side: an example. The Vakinankaratra, 100 miles south of here, are technically Merina, the same tribe as me. (… 2)
Erkhyan
(2…) and yet, their appearance, their language, and their traditions are all markedly different from mine. I might not even understand them.
pawdraig
your heritage. I do concede I was wrong though! As was thinking of diversity in a different way 3/3
pawdraig
languages are derivatives of each other? I think every country would have been like that at some point, just you've managed to hold onto..2
pawdraig
Not marrying outside "the tribe" is common in many modern religions in places. If you understand some does that not indicate that the...
ozftw
It is, that surprised me too. Melbourne is a melting pot of almost every ethnicity you can imagine - the other capitals are likely the same
mirria
Major cities always have immigrants and cultures from everywhere. It's the bulk of smaller cities and villages that tend to be homogenous.
ozftw
This is true, however Australia is highly urbanised, nearly two-thirds of the country's population lives in just the five largest cities
LittleAutumnLeaves
Does that mean that the cumulative population of ethnically homogenous towns > the cumulative population of ethnically heterogenous cities?
mirria
if you have 50% of people living in metropolises and 50% elsewhere and 50% ethnic pop in metro, 0% elsewhere, that's only 25% national pop.
LittleAutumnLeaves
Okay - is that representative? eg I know many of the biggest cities in GB (London, Birmingham, Leeds etc) are often very ethnically diverse.
