      Pointing out the number for one country and not the other doesn’t demonstrate anything.

      I looked it up and it does seem that there’s more diversity in Indonesia than in the US, according to the below Wikipedia article. Hopefully next time we can share information without being hostile. :)

      Ethnicity: the quality or fact of belonging to a population group or subgroup made up of people who share a common cultural background or descent.

      That doesn’t mean they have 600 genetic lineages.
