Immigration is endemic to the development of the United States. Throughout its history, multiple ethnic groups immigrated to the United States, thus affecting various elements of American life. Though immigration is usually a voluntary event, groups were moved against their will at certain points in history.

Please write a project paper of 1–2 pages, and choose 1 group from the following list that has immigrated to the United States:

Western Europe
Eastern and Southern Europe
Western Africa
