Foreign Born Population in the U.S. (1850-2019)

The term "foreign born" refers to people residing in the United States who were not U.S. citizens at birth. This population includes naturalized citizens, lawful permanent residents (LPRs), certain legal nonimmigrants (e.g., persons on student or work visas), those admitted under refugee or asylee status, and persons illegally residing in the United States.

just generalizing i think i get can the gist.

 

but the word "foreign" predates USA. its an english word based of a french one based of a latin one.

 

how is your cantonese/mandorine? i had a chinese friend in high school and i was around him enough to repeat something he would say often enough. i think he said it was either asshole or mother fucker. i only know how to type it phonetically.

There you go again. Aus doesn't dominate NZ politics at all. The definition of "foreign born" as it relates to the stats presented is in the description. If you wanna be cute, stick to things you know about like moose or ice hockey.
