Now, I don’t know whether this is confirmation bias, but, whenever I see whit Americans talking about their lineage they always say like “Dutch Irish” or “Scottish and German” or something. A collection of European nations (at least two) but never, EVER, fo they say “English” and I know that’ll be due to the whole War of Independence, but I find it funny that a former British colony apparently has no one of English origin there.
