Not all of the Inner Colonies are racial or cultural blends.  Smaller groups, like the Scottish on New Glasgow for instance, founded some Alliance colonies.  And then there are the Russian and Chinese colonies.  For each nation, colonists had to demonstrate absolute devotion to The State.  And the vast majority of colonists came from only certain acceptable racial groups.  The Chinese and Russian colonies achieved a uniformity that Western Alliance colonies never did.
