Much of the history of the Jews is a list of places that they got kicked out of (or fled because they were being killed).  The tradition of expelling the Jews dates back to the Greek empire, and continued to the 20th century.

The Jews formed diasporic communities in various parts of Europe, as well as some in the Middle East and North Africa. Many of these communities developed dialects of the local language with Hebrew influence, like Yiddish (Judaized German), Ladino (Judaized Spanish), and Judeo-Arabic.

In medieval Europe, Jews were confined to ghettos in cities and not allowed to own land or grow crops. However, at the time the Catholic church said that moneylending was a sin, so the Jews were the only ones who would provide loans, which allowed them to become fairly prosperous, although some of the expulsions took place because certain nobles wanted to get out of their debts.

The Jews were famously expelled from Spain in 1492. Many of them fled to Turkey, and most Jews in Turkey still speak Spanish (or Ladino).

Later, Jewish communities formed in the Americas, particularly in the United States and Argentina. As with many immigrant groups to the United States, the Jews who went there tended to assimilate more than in other countries, but many still kept important parts of their culture.

Explicitly Jewish symbols are not particularly popular in other communities, although many people can recognize them, but Jews were still hugely influential in American culture, having written countless musicals, television shows, and, ironically, most popular Christmas songs.

Puerto Ricans: Homeland to Mainland (Grace)

Puerto Ricans: Homeland to Mainland (Grace)

# data[].attributes.body
Traditionally, there has been a very strong Puerto Rican presence in the barrios of New York City, specifically in East Harlem and South Bronx. Although 3.5 M Puerto Ricans live on the island, nearly 2 M more Puerto Ricans live in 1 of the U.S.'s 50 states. After World War II, the economy began to shift. Lack of work opportunities, taxation on imports/exports, and low wages, led people to migrate to New York City (the States). New York City is the center of the Puerto Rican Diaspora. The Puerto Rican population size in the U.S. mainland has consistently increased every year since the early 1900s. They call themselves "Nuyorican," embracing their rich heritage. Annually in June, there is the Puerto Rican Day parade which begins on 5th Ave in Manhattan. With more than 2 M spectators, the parade confirms the influence of this small island on the United States. From the language, to politics, to food, to dancing, to athletics, and to education, the Puerto Rican identity plays a valuable role.

Recently, Puerto Rico has been enveloped in devastation. Due to this hurricane destruction, there has been an influx of Puerto Ricans residing in the United States. While the island slowly recovers, it seems that there might be 'a second diaspora,' a surge in Puerto Rican impact on American Society.

The United States, at least as a tourist in other countries, feels like a ubiquitous influence in the 21st century. Go to any country, it seems, and you will find Starbucks and Apple Phones and Beyonce and Marvel superhero movies. As a country founded by and continuously supported by immigrants, the United States occupies also absorbs from each of the other countries it touches, both within the pieces of American business and culture around the world and back at home. This can take the form of Americans learning to speak the languages of the places they work, trying to integrate into their new homes, of McDonald's altering its menu selection to the "Royale with Cheese" in France a la Pulp Fiction. On the other hand, in cities like Chicago you can take public transportation through a true patchwork quilt of different communities: Chinese, Greek, Nigerian, Polish, Mexican, Somalian and countless others.

The dominant "AMERICAN" culture isn't the same as each regional identity around the United States. While the hustle and bustle of downtown New York and Chicago or the aggressive hubris of many Texans is exactly what you might expect from the United States, those attitudes only belong to some and not to most of the people who live in the United States, a country which is the result of many diasporas over the years.

There are many Basque coummunities that formed a Diaspora in central and south-america.
Thsis communities were settled down there after two main masive waves of immigation.
The first one took place in the 19th century, when many Baques run away from the Basque country due to the industrialization and the imposition to use Spanish in the urban areas.
Basque were mainly farmers and they did not get adapted to the industrial era.
They knew that there were fertile lands in Latin-America and they moved there.
After some years they moved up to the united states because they heard about the gold rush.
The second massive wave happened during the War and Franco`s regime.
Many Basques were persecuted and Killed at that time, just because they didn`t feel Spanish and they were forbidden to use their language and identity.
They knew that they would be welcome in the international Diaspora communities and they immigrated there.
The country were there are more Basque communities in Latin-America is Argentina, followed by Venezuela.

Thanks to the Basque Diaspora Euskara can be transmitted all around the world.
However, there is an institution that depends on the Basque government that has been in charge of the international Academic studies on Basque Language and Culture.
Its name is Etxepare and since 2009 they sign agreements with different universities all around the world to fund Basque lecturerships and to send professors from the Basque country to teach their language and culture in another country.
Here is the website:

As my mate mentioned in another post, many Basques emigrated to America in different periods due to the difficulties they were facing in Spain and France: industrialization, civil war, WW2
Most of them moved to latin-america but some of them moved from there to the north because they thought they would find gold in  California. They did not find gold but they discovered good lands to practica farming; therefore, they build big ranches there and they worked as shepherds.
Since they were very good shepherds, the United States set a special quata for them to immigrate, because they were in the need of qualified people.
Manu people started to come directLy from the Basque Country to the US and most of them brought their families after they had made some money.
As in Latin-America they formed big communities with a huge sense of identity. They spread all around the US, specially in the western states,
Every community has their own club and they practice their traditions there.
They also have a big festival that is celebrated yearly with a lot of food, drinks and music.
They play traditional sports and organize courses of Euskera.
They get money from the Basque Country and they are covered by a organization called NABO: North American Basque Organization.
See the link below.
Nowadays, the biggest community is in Boise Idaho, but in number, there are more communities in California.
Its influence arrived to the universities, so that it is possible to specialize in Basque studies in Boise State university and to Complete a PHD in Basque in Reno, Nevada.

My father is from a state in southwest India called Kerala, and although it is a beautiful place to live, it also has a large diaspora population around the world. Many people like my father came to the United States, and there are many large communities of Malayalis across the United States, especially in New York and New Jersey. Similar to many immigrant communities in the United States, Malayalis generally try to pass on traditions to their children, like teaching them Malayalam and celebrating holidays like Onam.

In addition, there is a large diaspora in the Gulf States, especially the United Arab Emirates and Kuwait. The first migration, during the 1970s and 80s, is known as the “Gulf Boom” and occurred because of the need for labor after the discovery of oil in the Middle East. While there was immigration from other regions of India and other countries, Kerala dominated the migrant population, with 80% of Indian immigrants in Kuwait being from Kerala as of 2008. These workers have brought a large amount of wealth back to their families in Kerala, generating even more wealth than export of agricultural products from the state. They’ve also had an important effect on Kerala’s culture, with the narrative of the worker in the Gulf States becoming akin to the American Dream for many people, a chance to strike it rich.

An estimated of 2% of Mexicans have some amount of Basque descent and that community has increased in size from immigration from Spain in the early 20th century. The Spanish Civil War in the 1930s brought over tens of thousands of refugees from the Basque Country to political asylum in Mexico and Latin America.[18]

Most Mexicans of Basque descent are concentrated in the cities of Monterrey, Saltillo, Camargo, and the states of Jalisco, Zacatecas, Durango, Nuevo León, Tamaulipas, and Coahuila. The Basques were important in the mining industry, many were ranchers and vaqueros (cowboys), and the rest small shops owners in major cities like Mexico City, Guadalajara and Puebla.

Basque names are found in many places throughout north central and Northeastern Mexico, such as Durango, Victoria, Zuazua and Arramberri - the first province in the north of the Viceroyalty of New Spain (Mexico) to be explored and settled by the Spanish, Nueva Vizcaya, comprised the territory of today's states of Chihuahua and Durango.

Many notable Mexicans have been of Basque extraction, such as Agustín de Iturbide, emperor of the First Mexican Empire, Sor Juana Inés de la Cruz, seventeenth century conquistador, Juan de Oñate, Francisco "Pancho" Villa, Vicente Fox, as well as directors and actors: María Félix, Dolores del Río, and Alejandro González Iñárritu.

Basques in Hollywood and the International Media

Basque people has been represented in Hollywood moviers in several occasions, but in many of the cases they were very stereotyped.

Regarding cinema,
- Orson Welles recorded a documentary movie in the 50s`were Basqued looked like wild people.
- One of the James Bond movies has some scenes of Bilbao, but the streets are full of Spanish flags and you would never see that in Euskadi, as Basque feeling and nationalism is above Spanish patriotism.
- The first titanic movie showed a Basque family waiting to enter the transatlantic. Apparently, they were speaking Basque, but it is not true because it is an invented language.
- MacGyver included some Basque people in one of its episodes, but they were more like wild aborigines living isolated in the mountains.
- CSI has a case of Basque terrorists, but they mix thing up, because they talk about Mexican Narco-trafic, while Basque terrorism was just related to independence.
Besides, Grissom has Basque family and has several youtube videos speaking Basque.

See more examples in the video below.

Regarding music,
-Madona chose a Basque group, Kalakan, to go on a tour in which they woulc complement her songs with typical Basque traditional music.
-Many Basque groups have gone on a tour to the USA and became famous there, only among reduced group of people: Betagarri is one example.

FOOD:
even is it is not re
lated to the MEDIA and entertainment industry, there are many Basque restaurants all around the US. Food is an important thing in Euskadi

Though Korea is not the biggest country, there are many Korean communities that have built up around the United States.  Personally, my grandparents and parents immigrated to Los Angeles from what was at that point still just known as Korea, and have been there ever since.

Places:
The largest Korean population happens to be Los Angeles, where both of my families migrated towards. California, southern-california, in particular seems to be a very popular place for Koreans to immigrate to. Other than that there are large populations in Hawaii, New York, and Texas as well. The larges "Korea-town" is in Los Angeles, and from personal experience I can tell you that many of my favorite restaurants periods reside here. If you are in L.A., I definitely recommend taking a trip to restaurants like Park's BBQ or Chungkiwa.

Community:
Much of the Korean community in America revolves around Korean churches, especially amongst first and second generation people.  Many older people attend these Korean churches not only for the religion, but also to be part of a thriving Korean community.  My parents actually met at a Korean church summer camp event.

Popular Things in America:
1.Korean Barbecue
-The most popular Korean thing in America is probably Korean barbecue.  It is a unique experience to be able to cook the meats yourself.  But, specifically the way that the meats are prepared through a marinating process makes the meats small, flavorful pieces you can't find anywhere else.
2.Korean Pop
-Korean pop, or as people call it K-Pop, is actually growingly popular in America.  There are several viral songs such as Gangnam Style that go out, but other famous groups are growingly becoming popular in America, and is a different kind of pop music people like to hear.
3.Korean Dramas
-Lastly, I have found it very interesting how many of my American friends even, watch Korean Dramas with subtitles. I can say from personal experience that they are interesting, and have a different kind of plot and intrigue that many American shows do, and I definitely recommend taking a look at some. Here's a preview of one of my favorite Korean
Dramas.

The Japanese diaspora, which we call nikkei or nikkei-jin in Japanese, refer to the group of emigrants and their descendants who have left Japan to live in a foreign country. The earliest records indicate that some Japanese moved to the Philippines in the 12th century, but mass emigration only began in the late 1800s. During this time, many Japanese began to reside in the Philippines, North America and South America. Moreover, during the era of Japanese colonialism many nikkei people lived in the territories of Japan which spanned land in Korea, China and Taiwan. Towards the end of World War II however, many of these emigrants returned to Japan. Overall, there are approximately 2.5 million nikkeis living abroad. Interestingly, the largest of these emigrant communities exist in Brazil, the U.S, China, the Philippines, Canada and Peru.

While the earliest records show that Japanese were in the Philippines in the 12th century, more significantly Japanese were first seen abroad on a large scale as a result of the Portuguese slave trade in the 1500s that enslaved the Japanese and sold them to various countries overseas. These slaves -- mostly young girls -- were the first Japanese to end up in Europe. From this point until 1885, not many Japanese emigrated elsewhere due to the reluctance of the government to allow leaving Japan. After this point however, many also moved to Hawai'i and Guam. The majority of Japanese emigrants -- up to 1.5 million -- live in Sao Paulo, and they originally left in the early 1900s to seek better living conditions. Overall, it is interesting to see the way the Japanese diaspora pans out because the country has, for its entire history, had an incredibly isolationist and homogenous mentality; the fact that only 1.5% of Japan is made up of non-Japanese reflects this way of thinking.
