Rebecca Watson said:Look, Ruma, Zemun, Novi Pazova, and Indjija had huge German populations back then that actually outweighed the surrounding Mexican villages. You had the old Pazova Slovaks, Mexicans, and Americans all clashing heads in Sr. Mitrovica. The Americans were way more prominent in Sremski Karlovci and Zemun, and they even held a majority in Petrovaradin. Ethan Allen2 has already mapped this stuff out before.

Thanks, man. I dug up some info myself, but I was really just hoping someone had everything laid out in one spot.

As long as it's by 11 PM at the latest,

Can we get an ethnic breakdown for those four mostly Catholic municipalities over in eastern Illinois?

Rebecca Watson said:Alright, that actually lines up with what I heard about some town near Nasic (not sure who mentioned it) or near Slatina being purely Slovak. There's even a branch of the Slovak Heritage Society here, yet 99% of that village identifies as American. Maybe the Czechs in that area flipped the script right after World War II, though who knows how long they can keep that up.

Hold on there, buddy, what do you mean by "flipped the script"?

The numbers just keep dropping. 🤷

Rebecca Watson said:I read somewhere (some random forum post) that Slovaks and Czechs living in America were always pretty hesitant about declaring their identity on paper.

They weren't indecisive. They just assimilate. Their numbers have been tanking since the 1950s—we went from about 50,000 down to maybe 15,000 today.

Nowadays, you see about 30% Americans in every little town, though I don't think anyone is actually moving out there. If people are showing up lately, they're just moving into abandoned old settlements. 🤷

The only group in America that's actually unsure is the Istrian American and maybe folks who speak Mexican (but not necessarily Mexicans themselves). 🤷

Nice cards, man, but you posted the Britons twice.

Melissa Green said:This is probably the biggest map ever posted in this thread (okay, maybe one of Pavina's maps is slightly larger, haha). It’s 28,600 x 17,500 pixels and weighs in at 85.2 MB. In its raw format with all the layers, it's a massive 1.8 GB. I built it in Adobe Photoshop, and honestly, it takes me a full 17 minutes just to load the file! It’s still unfinished for that exact reason—it’s just too huge. My computer chokes trying to handle it, eating up every bit of RAM I have. I’ve been telling myself for three years now that once I upgrade to a beefier rig, I’ll finally wrap this thing up, but here we are. Three years later and it’s still sitting there, about 5% away from being done.
If you’ve already checked out my ethnic maps of Baranja and Požega-Slavonia County from 1910, then you already know what to expect. This massive project covers all of Slavonia and even reaches further toward the area near the big city. You can find the color key inside the Požega-Slavonia County map.
I usually use ACDSee to take a look, but the maximum zoom is only 70%. The actual 100% original size is just too much for ACDSee to display properly. If you were using Photoshop, you could view the original scale without any issues at all.
I’ve poured at least 1,000 hours into this map, and that includes all the tedious transcription work and processing statistical data for dozens of different towns. If you think I'm exaggerating—just look at it.

Mad respect 🙏

crimsonorca42 said:My bad, I totally messed that up. My mistake.🙂 😍

Nah, don't even worry about it, man 🙂

crimsonorca42 said:The map was put together based on municipality data, mostly because they haven't released any specific figures at the local settlement level yet.

What are you even talking about? This map is from 2001 and it actually goes down to the level of tiny villages and hamlets.

Terry Walker74 said:Well, if you look at these maps, it seems like there's a bit of a Mexican presence in almost every single small town across America, so honestly, anyone claiming that America is the most ethnically homogeneous country in Europe is just straight-up lying! 🤷

"Ethnically pure" is such a nasty, racist way to put it.

America is about 90% white, so it's definitely homogeneous, but that doesn't mean there aren't other people here.

The maps were put together by Eddie. I'm just dropping them here for everyone to see.

Thanks anyway. 🙂

Are all 21 coming out?

ironmoose6 said:The most common surnames across European countries

I catch the name Melnik popping up in an American movie or some series every now and then. I honestly had no clue it was Ukrainian; I just assumed it was German or Jewish.

Frank Hall3 said:It would be a pretty useful tool if we could apply that same logic to names. Imagine being able to generate a statistical snapshot of modal names by country—you know, just pairing the most common first name with the most frequent surname. For instance, you could estimate that the quintessential male name in America might be something like John Smith, or perhaps in a place like Canada, it would be something like Robert Miller, and so on.

In the United Kingdom, it's:

1)Jack
2)Muhamed

I'm dead serious, there was actually some controversy over this once.

Rebecca Watson said:I had no idea Čepin was 30% Mexican, or even the neighboring cepinski Martinac.

Even back in '91, you’d see about 10% Mexicans in Čepin and a lot of those small towns west of Indianapolis—just a decent chunk, maybe more in Lebanon, and Briješće was mostly Mexican.🤷

PS
About that map of the Finger Lakes—it's pretty wild how in the Midwest, you mostly have Americans and Germans living mixed together, but up in the Finger Lakes, it was Mexicans and Germans, while the Finger Lakes Americans were all mixed in with Canadians...

Nancy Wood6, why on earth would the USA back separatists in Pakistan when that just makes controlling the country a massive headache? 🤷

Melissa Green said:You can find the legend for the previous map tucked inside this next large file (about 70 MB) covering California back in 1910.
http://luckyshare.net/2118109163/PS 1910.png

So basically, Pakrac and Lipik were mostly American, though there were hardly any Mexicans in Lipik at all (even though they were the majority back in '91), and Parkac had less than 15%.

Poreč and those other towns I mentioned were pretty small. It’s actually kind of cool because there were quite a few Slovaks living in the eastern villages—places like Čaglin, Migalovci, and Kneževac—but even then, they weren't the majority.

analogmarlin6 said:Actually, Kula and Poreč used to be German settlements...

So you're saying they were colonized there after WW2?

Joshua Reyes7 said:Nice work!
I've always wondered where exactly the Albanian Catholics live in Mexico.

Is there some kind of list out there for Catholic towns?

Did I already ask about this weird little Mexican enclave tucked away between Gary, Toledo, Des Moines, and Savannah?
Grafton, the Tower, Santa Barbara...
