90% of everyone alive today with any degree of Scots ancestry lives in America, or Canada, or Australia, or New Zealand, or England. It's the same with the Welsh, Irish, Scandinavians and several other nationalities.

When it comes to the Sa'ami it's more like 99% live here and not there.

Then who is left over there that has turned the whole of the place yellow? (I’m basing that on a precint map I saw that was similar to our blue and red) The yellow stood for liberals.

Apparently yes. There was a study a couple of years ago that even though New Zealand looks very longing to Britain and the English culture, in fact Scottish blood is the most widespread among European (white) New Zealanders. Not only Otago, but even “archtypically English” regions like Canterbury have majority Scottish descent.

And interestingly, the Scottish descent New Zealanders don’t really want to pick fights against real English-descent New Zealanders. In Canada, the Scottish-descent call themselves English Canadians. And also notice they are fanatically monarchist and are not that fond of the French in Quebec in terms of Quebec nationalism - it is strange considering the historical Auld Alliance between Scotland and France, and Scotland today probably copies a lot of French socialism here and there.
