Not sure if anybody posted these maps before but I found this to be really interesting! America is indeed a nation of immigrants. People came here for a bunch of different reasons. It's even surprising to me that people refuse to believe that immigrants are what make up this country.

I also found these maps. What surprised me the most out of this set of maps, was the map where it stated "Kids born poor have almost no chance at achieving the American dream". Children of immigrants come to America to have better lives, and most of them come to the country without any assets. This makes it extremely difficult for children to get where they want in life.
