Watch it 2 times
1st for the area in the moving graph...
then for the countries with the most immigrants in the lower left corner










Watch 200 years of U.S. immigration history in one animated map. Migration flows are visualized as colored dots, each one representing 10,000 people.

Also watch the lower left of the screen.
For the past 200 years where have all the people been coming from?
Notice what happens after 1970.


This is really fascinating

A constitutional republic would have been an impossibility if our country had been founded by the immigrants and invaders that we're now cursed with. America would be just another third world cesspool. There should be a noose around the neck of every politician responsible for today's immigration disaster.

It may be obvious to everybody already but I surmise that graph captures only recorded AND legal immigration.



"It did not really matter what we expected from life, but rather what life expected from us. We needed to stop asking about the meaning of life, and instead to think of ourselves as those who were being questioned by life – daily and hourly. Our answer must consist not in talk and meditation, but in right action and in right conduct. Life ultimately means taking the responsibility to find the right answer to its problems and to fulfill the tasks which it constantly sets for each individual." Viktor Frankl, Man's Search for Meaning, 1946.

Yes, the graph only captures immigrants that obtained Lawful Permanent Resident status.
