The Western United States is the most diverse area of the country. There are
four main ethnic group in that area. Each ethnic group has their own history, how
they got to Western United States. The four main ethnic group are White, American Indian,
African American, Asians and Hispanic. American Indians are the original of the land, African
American migrated to Western United States during world war two, While, The Asian and Hispanic
population peak during the 70s and 80s. Most Asians came from Asian countries, while most\
Hispanic came from Central America and South America. So, my question, what is the history of
Whites in the Western United States, did they came from Canada or Europe, why did
they came here, what period of time did they came. I want to heard other peoples opinion.

"So, my question, what is the history of

They came from the East in the 1800's. They started new cities and the cities grew. After a century or so City Data Forum was invented. On it, they discovered their Western cities were something called "sprawl" ,which apparently is very bad, then they were told they had no history or culture. Then they built more houses for all the people that kept moving from the East. The end.

Perfect synopsis, cacto.

My attitude toward growth for the inland West has usually been very positive until I think about Denver. Or Phoenix. Or Las Vegas. Or Albuquerque.

Now don't misunderstand, it's really nothing personal against these cities or their growth patterns (which really seems to depend on the neighborhood anymore), but the increasing encounters with colonialist transplants in Western cities is kinda discouraging.

Many of the original settlers came from other countries.

for example, the foreign born % of California in 1890 was 30%. Montana 32%, North Dakota 45%.

They didn't directly go to those states.
