The Roman Catholics
Roman Catholics are the largest individual religious denomination in the United States, with about 50,000,000 adherents. Few Roman Catholics are of English or Scottish descent, hence Roman Catholics tend to have separate ethnic identification than most Protestants, at least in the larger cities. Most people of Irish, Italian, Hispanic and Eastern European descent, with some Germans, are Roman Catholic.
