- halomru 10y agoNo, because the idea of nations is a lot newer than that. Without nations no immigrants.
- tdb7893 10y agoI guess. This is a semantic argument but I'm actually a little curious. Does this mean that Europeans who settled in lands not specifically claimed by native Americans or European powers aren't immigrants? Also what's your opinion on whether you call someone am immigrant if they took the land by force and just declared it their's?
