If I'm not mistaken, that study doesn't take into account how similar ethnic groups are. It would assign the same diversity index to a 50% Catalan, 50% Spanish

- fastball 8y agoPrecisely. Measuring purely the number of technically different ethnicities is a silly way of calculating diversity. You need to look at the delta between the ethnicities if you want to talk about diversity that isn't purely on paper. I probably should've just said "racially", but oh well.
- tlarkworthy 8y agoYeah probably US is most racially diverse
