Compared to some nations the US is extraordinarily diverse: Ireland, Norway, Fiji.
Compared to others it's practically homogeneous: India, Papua New Guinea.
For an example closer to home: Canada is probably more ethnically diverse than the United States and, Quebéc aside (which is sort of our lone-star province) has a lot more political cohesion. Toronto is vastly more ethnically diverse than New York City today despite New York having representation from every country in the world.
Similar factors are in play, though: Generally there's enough resources for everyone, so there's no need to fight for scraps.
The US has a lot of work to do to bring itself truly together. I just worry that things are going in the opposite direction now with infighting being encouraged to divide and conquer all those opposed to the current administration.

Aye..I think we're on the cusp of taking some steps back.
