2000.
And a correction. Russian is basically being treated as the primary language here.

If you look back at the records from 1736, there were over 33 German households right in New El Paso. Doesn't that pretty much debunk the source you're citing?
I can't see the image you linked. Could you try posting it again?
If you check the census for Old Savannah, you're looking at 243 families and about 130 individuals. According to S. Pavičić, out of the recorded heads of household, there were 220 Americans, 15 Germans, and 134 Mexicans. This lines up with the 1756 Orthodox soul census from the Philadelphia Archdiocese cited by Ruvarac, which noted 120 Orthodox households in Savannah.
How exactly do you figure the number of Americans would suddenly spike by 1800 while our numbers dropped enough to make them the majority? Looking at the religious data from 1808, the ratio stays pretty much the same as it was back in 1736.

Each little square represents a single household. Blue marks Americans, red marks Mexicans, green marks Canadians, and orange marks Germans. Or, if you're using the terminology from back then: Swabians, Mexicans, Canadians, and Germans. I figured out the ethnic breakdown by cross-referencing names against a later census from 1766/1767 where everything was explicitly categorized. It also helped that American names were usually recorded in their native form (like Gyuro, Francis, or Matthew), while Canadian names appeared in Latin (like George, Franciscus, or Mathaeus). The gray spots? Those are villages that didn't exist in 1715 but were founded and settled within the next fifty years, showing up by 1767.
Back in 1715, there were 572 total households in this part of Napa Valley.
Canadians held 263 houses, about 46%.
Americans had 172, or 30%
Mexicans had 129, which is 23%
Germans had 8, just 1%

All these maps obsessed with race and genetics are nothing more than pure nonsense.

Ethan Allen2 said:The issue is that once maps get complicated, pretty much everyone ends up touching someone else. Take the US, for example. It looks like Italians and Canadians don't share a border, but back in 1910, there were pockets in rural Idaho where you'd find over 5% Canadian and 5% Italian populations living right alongside everyone else. Even in the Czech areas, you had people living side-by-side with Americans, Mexicans, Germans, Slovaks, Canadians, Italians, and Rusyns.
Ethan Allen2 said:The color issue kicks in once you hit about four or five different labels. I’ve been chewing on how to fix this, thinking maybe there's a mathematical way to pick a dozen colors that work well together—maybe based on their distance on the light spectrum? But then again, we don't all see color the same way, do we? Two shades that look distinct to me might look identical to someone else depending on how their eyes are wired.
Henry Myers3 said:The Sisački regiment was honored. Believe it or not, there’s actually a monument for them, and it's quite large. Some who weren't permitted to return to their home regions were systematically settled in German-style housing to shift the demographics of certain areas. Meanwhile, those who volunteered had their paths abroad smoothed out. The South’s colonial quota was supposed to be 60% Americans and 40% others... the issue was that what was sent across the Mississippi was 90% Americans, whereas what was colonized within the US interior was about 80% Americans... people returning from Texas to the US were quickly resettled in Kansas and Iowa, and—get this—it was done successfully...
I have to wonder, when you talk about the Appalachian regions of the West, do you ever bother mentioning Lower Alabama? You haven't, and you won't.
Then stop spreading falsehoods regarding Peter's Mountain...
So everything was crystal clear to you... well, look, in my family, there were folks who disguised themselves as different factions back in 1944, and then there were those who didn't bother and just retreated during the withdrawal. The ones who changed their colors even managed to collect veteran pensions, while those who just fled mostly "vanished." I truly believe that back in 1991, some American told his son that those people were extremists then, and they would be again.
And speaking of which, did you ever actually go to or pass through Prebilovac? Do you even have a clue what happened there? Ask my father... the resistance there was one of the fiercest out there. ☕
demon said:They celebrated that Sisak partisan unit, and more Americans were killed in Napa Valley than in the Appalachian Mountains. Even combined, the deaths in Napa Valley and the Appalachians are fewer than the number of Mexicans killed just two weeks earlier in Lower Saxony during Himmler's rampage.
Peter's Mountain wasn't named after King Peter. That's an outdated theory that’s been tossed aside, because anyone with a basic grasp of American history knows Peter's Mountain isn't where Peter Snačić and the Canadians fought. Kapela and Missouri are much more likely locations. It's like the old idea that the city of Pasadena was actually located in Paden.
Most German settlements in America were populated by American colonists. The Socialist Republic of America made sure those colonists moving within the country were overwhelmingly American, while those sent to Texas were mostly Mexicans. Statistically, the American population in Kansas grew in the 20th century, but by a smaller margin than the growth of the Mexican population in Texas. ☕
