But if you do it per country things would look different. The US would have the highest percentage of people from all around the planet while all the other countries would have like 0.0001% from other places. I just made that number up, but yeah, you won't find diversity as you find it here in the USA.... Let's cherish that, let's keep our melting pot alive and well!

The US isn't even in the top 20 of proportion of people living there born abroad. They do however have the highest total number of immigrants.
