So, in 1840 and 1880, European immigrants mainly came from northern and western Europe, and in 1900, the most famous wave of migration began when people from southern and eastern Europe came to the country. Between 1970 and 2000 over the years, migration from Asian countries increased, and a wave from Latin America formed in 1950 and lasted half a century. Migration from Africa became noticeable only in the 21 century, as until then the African population was not counted.
