The main races in the United States

The ethnic groups in the United States are complex. From a big perspective, there are Europeans, Africans, Asians and Latinos. The first category is the descendants of early European colonists, including Europeans who were exiled or fled to the United States for criminal reasons in history, and a large number of lower-class residents who moved to the United States at the turn of the 20th century. The second category is mainly the descendants of early slaves and post-war economic immigrants. The Asian population includes descendants of Chinese workers who were sold to the United States in the early days, lower-class people from China who came to the United States to make a living, and a large number of refugees from Asian countries. Latin American descendants are mainly descendants of Latin Americans who immigrated to the United States for economic reasons after 19 century. Of course, due to the post-war prosperity of the United States, a large number of elites from all over the world moved to the United States, and a large number of refugees also entered the United States in various ways. But the basic ethnic composition is the above four.
