How is your part of the world doing (both current and future prospects) compared to how it was 30/40 years ago? Please say where you are in the world.

Edit- Thank you everyone for commenting. It has been very interesting for me and hopefully for others. If you are just coming to this post please still comment I am still reading them.

Thank you so much for your thoughtful replies. I could ask your questions about this till you run away, but I will leave it for now.

Let me just leave you with this though. Looking at other counties that have a longer history of large immigration. It seems to take 2 to 3 generations for immigrants to feel native. Maybe a little unconditional acceptance and patience will help this along.

I hope the best for you and your country.

Thank you!

We have several groups who have assimilated: Iranians, Finns, Baltics. Thank you for the hopeful words :)
