Where in the Americas you can find indigenous Anglos? I think Belize has the biggest share.

You mean ethnic Anglo-Saxons? I'm sure the States takes that distinction followed by Canada and then 3. Barbados, 4. Jamaica, 5. Trinidad & Tobago, 6. Brazil, 7. Mexico, 8. Argentina.

Belize is way down even below countries like Venezuela, Chile, Peru and Colombia in terms of population size.

Now if you're talking about the anglosphere influence, that's a different matter.

Brazil

After the US civil war 20,000 southerners immigrated to Brazil rather than live under Yankee rule their descendants still love the confederate battle flag. Perhaps they are waiting for the south to rise.

US Southerners are not all Anglo-Saxons ethnically. The French had a large presence in the south which have more Celtic, Iberian, Ligurian, Gaule heritage.

They are largely of British ancestry primarily English. Anglo-Saxons contributed significantly to the English genetically. Technically the modern day populations closest genetically to the Anglo-Saxons that settled in the Isles would be the the people of Denmark and the Netherlands.

It would be nice if the OP cleared up what he meant, because I doubt he thinks Belize has the biggest share of Anglo saxons in the Americas. lol

I mean Amerindians, not Anglo Saxons. Where in the Americas is their a significant share of Amerindian descended people who are influenced by Anglo culture.

Still the United States and Canada each with 3 million and 1.4 million respectively. If you include mixed Amerindians the US number increases to over 5 million.

In the Anglo-Caribbean the native population was practically completely decimated.
Guyana is the only country that has a significant Amerindian population, 9% of the total or nearly 70,000 individuals.
Belize will come next with a small Mayan and mixed Garinagu community.

Canada and Argentina.




Most U.S. Anglos are not that anglo blooded. In the U.S. even Israeli Jews, Greeks, Russians, and Eastern Europeans are labeled anglos... funny how the U.S. media unaccurately categorizes people into groups.

Anyone who does not have a Latin European last name and has light skin and non slanted eyes in categorized as an anglo in the U.S.

That is why there are many foreigners from the middle east, North Africa, and Eastern Europe that change their last names to Smith and Williams when they become naturalized citizens.

[MOD CUT/rude] Also, the author of the thread clarified that he meant Amerindians under Anglo influence.

In the 1980 census 49,598,035 were recorded as English-American, I'm concentrating on English Americans because, welsh and irish tend to be celts not anglo-saxon and half of Scotts tend to be ancestral celts.

This is more than the current entire population of Argentina.

Scholars also believe this is highly under-counted as over the centuries many English-Americans just identify as American.

German Americans have a self reported figure of 50.7 million.
Irish Americans have a self reported figure of 34.5 million.
Polish Americans: 10 - 14 million.
Jewish Americans: 8.3 million.
Arab Americans: 3.5 million.
Russian Americans: 3.1 million.
Greek Americans: 1.3 - 3 million.

You seem to forget that the USA is by far the most populous country of the Americas.
