Despite being explicitly told by numerous posters, you still don't get that protestant splits into sizable groups so the percentage gets reduced, while catholic does not. Not sure what to make of it, just posting it (again) in the hope it will finally clear what is going on.
. Those are still all Protestant. The map you posted is at best misleading and mostly wrong If you are going to post a map as fact based, please include things like titles and sources, meaningful keys and dates.
"Today, the Catholic Church recognizes the existence of an expanded church community with varied liturgical expressions that culminate into 24 so-called primary churches or denominations, all within the Roman Catholic Church. These churches have unique traditions passed down through many centuries."
The various Protestant denominations just have higher public profiles. Whoever made the map you posted had some sort of agenda or was just ignorant.
Catholics are 23% of the US religious population. The largest protestant group is smaller than that, which is consistent with protestants if taken as a whole being more than catholics. Catholics in the US typically and historically are taken as a whole, with a common and prominent ceremonial/nominal head, which can be inferred from resources you should at least be vaguely familiar with (ever heard of the Pope?). Can't make it simpler for you, realize what you were stuck at and move on, the map was fine and data backs it as two other posters already also told you.

I fully grasp the misuse of data in that map. Saying all Catholics get grouped together, but Protestants get broken down into many subgroups is a misuse of data.
Given those numbers, no way Catholics have a plurality in most states. As I said, they only have a majority in 4. The problem with the original map is that it has no title, date or source. Like it is just someone's fantasy. the irreligious seem to outnumber Catholics a the national level (2014)
Again, Kyr's map splits protestants into each individual church (Southern Baptist, Methodist, etc.) while your chart doesn't. A given protestant church is probably even less than 20%.
County maps are so much better usually because they show distribution within states which can be important. Some surprises in your map: the Finnish in Michigan and the Irish in Montana. The Irish in Florida must be the NY retires. the tiny blue dot in NM is Los Alamos cty where the labs are and the population is mostly non Hispanic whites. The county was created during WW2 for the bomb development and security controls.

Yes and no. Roman Catholics all belong to the same institution, whereas Protestants are by nature distributed across a bunch of different ones. Of course, they're typically closer theologically closer to one another than to Catholics, and collectively they do comfortably out number Catholics, so it's a matter of perspective.

It may be closer theologically, but we are looking at maps of people. If we are describing demographics it makes sense to split on any lines that describe real population features, such as ethnic origin. That is likely to be little like something that models doctrinal similarity.
Sometimes a map isn't posted to promote any sentiment; for example I literally can't care less about whether protestants outnumber catholics in the US, while still no protestant group is as large as the catholic bloc. I wanted to present the situation with the cult of Mormonism ^^
Speaking of religions, disclaimer: the following is simply altered, so just enjoy it
Guy went into the trouble of reworking some emblems and even the arabic in SA's flag.
they are economically somewhat involved with this country . This will change . Unless of course they are too much pro-Russian with their laws that require the NGOs declare from whom they get their donations . The EU is kinda mad , despite the reports of similar laws everywhere that aim to stop Russian funding . Because it is the EU that funds the Opposition in Georgia or something .
you will see the same standart still applies . When basically the entire thing is about trolling me or whatever . As such the closest Bulgarians came was like 1913 , they got all their allies against them . The Russian Empire ended basically because the global war to assure a safe destruction of the Ottoman could not end with the City in the hands of some other Orthodox power that would claim to be the re-incarnation of Rome , when Moscow's claim was to be 3rd Rome . Oh , there were planes , too . Not Phantoms though . Anyone who wants a piece of this country will be given some that's not ever loved . If people are keen on anything , please assure it is before 1071 or 1453 or anything .

What if the Pechenegs weren't (literally) cut down by Ioannes II (Komnenos) and his varangians.
Pechenegs were a mongolic tribe, nomads and raiders. What remained of them historically was organized into a Byzantine sub-army regiment to be used in other battles.
