My idea: lack of common history/shared experiences makes for more clustering. The US is a relatively new nation without any bonding (or diversifying) events before the War of Independance.
Prediction: in, say, 250 years, there'll be no more references to ...-Americans.



That makes sense, and I hope you're right.

Can someone explain to me why nobody ever mentions German-Americans, Scottish-Americans, etc., while Irish-Americans, Italian-Americans and some other groups are always indicated this way? Thanks!
