Are Scotts Irish considered English?

The colours used seem to be poorly chosen, given that humans are most sensitive to differences around green and blue, but here they use lots of orange/brown/pink.

This is wrong. There are a lot more white Mexicans where I live than Germans, and I suspect that’s true for a lot of the US.

Yeah that seems right to me too. Source is the census, where Hispanic is an Ethnicity, so unless they excluded White Hispanics for some questionable reason I can't imagine this being accurate.
