My point is that you are stating differences between states, when your states are country sized. We have differences between regions in the country itself, wilder differences that yo have in your whole ass country.
There ought to be some differences in a country the size of 5 countries. What shocks us is how little differences there are.
Well, the US is about 250 years old as a society. How old is your country bud?
I mean, then don’t go saying that it’s very diverse? Idk.
Spain is about a thousands older, my region even more.
Do me a favor and look up the Diversity Index of the US, France, and Spain. It’s literally a measure of how diverse a group is. Tell me which scores higher - the highest score would be the ‘most diverse’ by definition.

Funny enough, Spain and the US are both almost 0.5 by the looks of that chart. Most of Europe are way less diverse. Holland, Greece, and Switzerland not withstanding, though I bet if you use income diversity, Switzerland turns navy blue.
