    I never really thought about breaking the population down like that. But it is interesting and entertaining. Maybe you can break down the most Scottish States along with the most Scottish part of the State. I got my suspicions on it but I may not be accurate. I suspect the Appalachian regions will have a lot off Scottish and Irish names. But again, I might not be completely accurate on that. And you might be able to go to seperate ways with that.

That region's Mexican food is a little different. Its heavier on flour with breads and flour tortillas and less corn and chile pepper influence.

    Excellent video, and what I'm about to say isn't a knock on Briggs. It's a general observation regarding how the US categorizes ethnic groups. Only in the US is "Latino" considered ONLY Latin America. The rest of the world isn't so ignorant regarding ethnic groups. Latino is a form of "Latin" which refers to any people of Latin Language Origins (The Romance Languages) which would include all the Latin American peoples as well as people of Italian, Portuguese, French, Spanish, and Romanian heritage. For example, saying an Italian (in particular) isn't Latin is like saying a Lion isn't a member of the cat family. That Italian's Roman Ancestors spoke Latin. You can't be any more Latin than that.
