The German language was spoken by the German Americans until the First World War (1914-1918). Due to anti-German hate crimes, many German Americans were hiding their German roots by for example stopping spekking German or ‘translate’ their surnames. Former president Trump’s grandfather had the surname Trumpf when he was born. President Dwight Eisenhower’s German ancestor who migrated to the Unites States was born as Eisenhauer. So, that’s why many people do’nt see much of the German influence.

When we talk about the descendants of ancient Spanish America, we cannot talk about an ethnic group, since there are great differences between a Puerto Rican, a Mexican or an Argentine. The most important group today in the United States are the emigrants from Spanish America. As a Spaniard, it has always caught my attention that in the United States they talk about the Latin race, which would be like calling all the inhabitants of the former British Empire the British race. Furthermore, the Latin people themselves are the inhabitants of Lazio, a nearby region. To Rome, there are Latin or Romance languages ​​that come from Latin, Spanish, French, Italian, Romanian, Portuguese,... but a Latin race never existed, because even the Roman legions were a mixture of different peoples.

Mostly Americans lies also about their Ancestry because they like to be different than being English, Scottish, Irish or Welsh. I meet Americans which claimed to be Japanese or Korean but have English or Irish surname. For Example: English Ancestry: In the 1980 Census, over 49 million 49.698.035 Americans claimed English ancestry. At 26.34%, this was the largest group amongst the 188 million people who reported at least one ancestry. In the 2019 Census only 23.593.434 Americans claimed English ancestry 7.7% of the US population. Irish Ancestry: In the 1980 Census, over 40 Millionen people claimed Irish ancestry and today only claimed to be Irish 31,517,030 9.7% of the US population. Scottish Americans: In the 1980 Census 10.048.816 million people 4.44% claimed Scottish ancestry and today only 5.298.861 1.6% of the US population. Scotch-Irish Ancestry: Self-identified "Scotch-Irish" 2004 27 million people 9.2% of the U.S population and today 3.011.165 million people 0.9% of the U.S population. Welsh Americans: Today 1.956.225 people claimed to be Welsh. That´s only 0.6% of the U.S population but 3.8% of American appear to bear a Welsh surname. Americans which claimed to have German ancestry is 44 Million People 13% of the US population. Majority of them are just claimed to be partly German not fully. Which is mostly made up because it's self reported ancestry. 15 Million from 44 Million has self reported german ancestry alone. Thats also the only believable and realistic number for Germans in the United States. But 44 Million is made up like Christmas Pickles tradition what Americans believe is a German tradition which don't even exists in Germany. If Germans would make such a high number. As in the Census, there would be cultural influence. Such as Migrants' food consumption or Holidays. Americans celebrate Irish holidays such as Halloween and St. Patrick's Day. There is no German public holiday in the U.S which should have a higher impact with such numbers. Then why do Americans live in American colony houses which came from English, Irish, Scottish and Welsh settlers to this day and not in the German houses called ,,Fachwerkhaus" ? Town Names in the Unites States are very rare but aren't even German historical. Example Germantown: Although the arrival by ship of the later founders of Germantown in Philadelphia on October 6, 1683, was later to provide the date for German-American Day, a holiday in the United States, historical research has shown that nearly all of the first thirteen Quaker and Mennonite families were in fact Dutch rather than Germans. Another Example: Schaumburg before known as Sarahs Grove: The original 1842 township survey names the grove (immediately west of the center of the township, in sections 21 and 22) as Sarah's Grove. Three families lived near a grove of woods on the northwest end of the township, and each family had a woman named Sarah 'Sarah McChesney, Sarah Frisbe, and Sarah Smith'. At a township meeting in 1850, citizens debated new names for the town. A wealthy landowner named Friedrich Heinrich Nerge, at one point during the meeting, slammed his fist on the table and yelled in Low German, "Schaumburg schall et heiten!" The English translation: "It will be called Schaumburg!". At that point, the township became officially called Schaumburg. Germans do not adapt to the respective culture. They have always been considered stubborn. See Brazil or Argentina or today in Mallorca, Spain. The German influence is much larger in these countries than in the US despite the lower numbers. They celebrate their holidays there and also have their bread culture.

American is not a nationality, Mr. Yoshida. American is and will always be a historical and continental identity like European, Asian and African that refers to all people from sll countries of AMERICA, an entire continent since 1507, composed of 35 countries, officially discovered and named in the South by the Catholics and not by a bunch of Protestants Pilgrims who arrived here centuries later behind us when everything had already been discovered and named and didn't spend a cent n the enterprise of the discovery of America. America and American refer to the discovery, conquest and colonisation of the American continent by the Catholics. You should learn the America's history properly and don't trust everything your winners tell you.

Genetic studies indicate that most of the ancestry of the so-called Caucasians came from British and Irish, on the other hand they have a high admixture with Germanics and Italians, in addition to an average of 2% admixture with African Americans. Most of the ancestry of African Americans came from West Africa, highlighting ethnicities of Bantu and Yoruba origin, with a mixture of 20% white or Caucasian. Hispanics and Latinos are those who present the highest levels of native ancestry in America with 40%, and with a high degree of Mediterranean miscegenation of 60%, highlighting the Iberian Peninsula and to a lesser extent Italians, Arabs and North Africans, also the component from Sub-Saharan Africa reaches up to 9%.

I've traced most of my ancestors back to the generations that crossed the Atlantic. They include English, Welsh, Scots, Irish, German, and French. So which bar am I in? Great chart, BTW.

A lot of English are actually of Welsh origins (British). The problem comes about because the Americans are never taught the differences and why Welsh people can have no ancestry from England but have an English origin surname. It’s because they all comes from first names, so for example - someone who Adopted A surname in Wales would have been called William, and used that as a surname when adopting the English system, so William become Williams in Wales and Williamson in England or Scotland. Here is a list of some Welsh (British) origin names - Rhys Rees Morgan Lloyd Owen Owens Evans Powell Howell Huws Hughes Griffiths Bethel Pugh Walsh Welsh Davies David Lewellyn

Something important to bear in mind with this video, whenever you see a large increase in a particular ethnicity, it's usually because of some kinds of strife causing them to migrate. So you get a massive wave of Irish in the 1840s because of the Irish famine. German's in the latter 19th century because of German wars of unification. Jews in around 1900 because of pogroms and anti semitism in Eastern Europe. You don't get similar migration from England or France because they were developed and affluent. The pattern continues today with migration from Mexico, many fleeing Mexico due gang violence and other problems there.

Waves of immigration would often come all at once and settle in a particular area where other people of the same heritage already live. For example, my great-great grandparents generation came from Ireland to Boston, along with millions of other Irish people. All the people in the neighborhood they lived in would have been Irish immigrants, and so the people they met and married were also most likely to be Irish immigrants. For example, traditionally South Boston was an Irish neighborhood, while The North End was Italian. Its still like this to some extent, South Boston has a big St. Patrick's day parade and lots of Irish bars and pubs, while The North End has excellent Italian restaurants, pizzerias and cafes on every corner. But this is slowly changing since immigration is not coming from Europe is large numbers anymore, but the third world.

@@oz25 thats your history and your mind. its not the same for everyone. murica has been a very segregated place. my parents born in murica, were both grand children of mexicans. all great grandparents from one country. just like it can be for other people. and might not know all their names. immigrating from other places, people even changed their last names or lost information.

Good video 👍 I'm glad you broke it down into the correct ethnic groups of English 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿, Scottish 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 and Welsh 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿 rather than just lumping us all together as British 🇬🇧

It's simple, Britain includes Ireland Scotland Wales England and Cornwall! Ireland was British Commonwealth too, you better believe it buddy, get an old copy of the King James Bible, King James also ruled Ireland. It was the Roman Empire that called it Britain by the way. AKA the British isles

@@blake9358 Ireland is not part of Great Britain. England, Scotland and Wales make up Great Britain. When you add northern Ireland to Great Britain it becomes the United Kingdom and when you add the Republic of Ireland to the United Kingdom it becomes the British isles. Also Cornwall is part of England not a constituent country of the UK and it was the norman french king Stephen of England that first conquered parts of Ireland.

"minoritys" out number my Nordic brethren manytimes over, also we arrived via New Amsterdam making us Native Americans, and those of us who are non Christianized, are tribal peoples as well. Interesting we have catogorized as White and majority.

I am sure someone has asked this, but what is the data source? As a history teacher, this makes sense, but where do the numbers come from? I have an Italian name, but an English, French, German, Irish, Scotch, etc. I identify as Northwestern Europe rather than any nation state.

The US census

Why don't I have to speak and understand German in order to understand what the guy I just hired is saying about me to his partner?

According to the 2020 American Community Survey which the stats on Wikipedia come from, Dutch 🇳🇱 and Swedish 🇸🇪 are still in the top 17 ancestral groups in the U.S., so they shouldn’t have been booted out of the video at the end. I don’t know what your sources are, but they appear to be wrong about multiple things.

this stats is obviously fake😂 the english ethnicity was the largest among any other ethnicities up until 1980s.. but after that in 1990s-now.. the english is surpassed by people who reported german and irish descent.. and oddly.. the number of people who reported english as their ancestry dropped drastically to almost half.. from 45.6m people in 1980s census to 37m in 1990s and now to just 24m people.. and insanely the german reporters went from 45.2m(just behind english in second) in 1980s up to 59m in 1990s.. that's just insane.. many assuming that americans of english descent who have other ancestry than english tend to report another differentiated ethnic group.. so maybe that's why.. yeah i think that's reasonable tho.. cause people from england(they called english cause from england) and the majority of people in america speak the same language right? so maybe they just trynna be different and they don't wanna be called the "british".. so they want to set themselves apart from the british(especially the english) from 1990s-now i think

It is not like they ran DNA tests on these people. This was based on what people filled out in a census. It is likely than many people simply identified as American vs the ancestry of their grandparents.

In the early 1900's one can link the tremendous rural poverty in Southern Italy and Sicily to the massive italian immigration to the USA.
