Yeah, according to those lists, but I have to say I really doubt their methodologies based on the results and my own experiences and knowledge.
For example, Armenia ranks higher than the United States? Bullshit. Absolutely bullshit.
I've been to Armenia. It is one of the most homogenous countries you will ever find. From Talin to Sevan to Yerevan, it's all the same people by and large.
And look at CIA Factbook. 98% speak Armenian, 1% speak Kurdish, and 1% is every other language. In America, we don't even have 80% who speak English!
So how the fuck does the US end up below Armenia??? By some bullshit, that's how.
You're reading the list incorrectly. Fearon's list is ranked, and Armenia is ranked lower than the U.S. Alssina's list is ranked alphabetical and Armenia has a lower Ethnic
Fractionalization than America has. So the list match your experience and knowledge.
Oh, I see. I started with the first list and then move to the second. Assumed both were ordered the same. Dunno why they wouldn't. Alphabetical is a useless way to display data.

funny enough is that the USA isn't even in the top 80 most diverse countries in the world.
