> It is not desirable to have separate ethnic groups who "share the same language, culture and faith" distinct from the mainstream.
Why not? Mainstreams are temporary. The Romans shifted from pagans to christians in just a decade (officially speaking). The German speaking region of Belgium was annexed in the 1900s (now the country has 3 different official languages). The whole latin america started speaking Spanish long before they became actual countries. Spain was mostly muslim for over 700 years.
There’s no mainstream. We are always changing and the mix is always better.
