I've always thought of most of Europe to be pretty homogenous as well. The US is pretty heterogenous ... much more so than most countries of the world.
China's numbers may be a bit different ... even supposing that the minority totaled 10% (I don't know that), that's still WAY over 100 million people. So that minority would make up much more than a majority in a country like Germany.
I guess my point is that I think racism would be much more prevalent and accepted in a country where the population is largely homogenous.
