Australia is by far the highest at 76%.
Interestingly, this is marginally higher than the share of people in England & Wales who identified as White British (74.4%) at the last census. Although, it should be noted that the Australian number looks at people with any British ancestry, not exclusively British ancestry.
States by Number of Highrise Buildings Over 50 Meters (164 Feet) Tall
The map above shows the number of Highrise buildings as defined as being over 50 Meters (164 Feet) by US State. The data comes from skyscraperpage.com, but is from 2021, so might be somewhat out of date.

The USSR Controlled More Of Europe Than Every Other European Country Put Together
Just the European part of it was larger geographically than every other European country put together.
If you include the Warsaw Pact countries, it controlled 61%! of the European landmass.
And, what’s even more suprising is that the European part of the Soviet Union was only a quarter of the it’s total land area (although did have around 75% of the population).
In terms of numbers, the European part of the USSR was around 5.2 million km2 (2.0 million sq miles), around 1.5 Indias in size.
