I looked, and it seems Germany has the 3rd most in the world just like the poster said. That's why I asked you where you got different information.

Sure, you proved you think there is an imaginary wall which seals off the borders of Germany. What you did not know, however, is that everyone can drive right through the imaginary wall and not even notice it. The problem with imaginary things is that they don't actually exist.

But America isnt making up for lost time on the ethnic diversity front like the EU is, we've been diverse for centuries. So even within regions the size of eu countries, different cultural norms means different views of work ethic, education, personal responsiblity, family values etc....

and i wouldnt have it any other way, i love the melting pot. we have to learn from each other, there cant just be one dominant group that uses its historical prescence to force others to assimilate like in europe.

Cite re: "imaginary wall"?

Be that as it may, last time I entered Franz Josef Airport, I don't recall an open border between the plane and airport exit. That's how I know I'm more informed than you about the subject.

Oh, so that explains the success of countries such as Congo, Botswana and Zanzibar."Homogeneous societies do better because everyone looks and acts alike". I am going to hold on to this quote. Hillarious.
