A MELTING POT
The United States of America has probably one of the most “mixed
populations” in the world. This is why it is often called “melting pot”. The
first Americans were the Native Americans- there are about 2 million of them
today, about 0, 8% of the population. Their ancestors came to America over a
“land bridge” from Asia 40,000 years before Columbus.
The European Arrive

today and most of them are descendants of slaves. More recently, people
have come to the United States from other parts of the world. Between 1820
and 1860 many people came from Germany and Ireland – about 58 million
(about 23%) of Americans have German ancestors and about 39 million

European countries including Russia, Poland, Greece, Turkey and Italy.

Rico. There are also large numbers of people from Asian countries, including
