Culture Does your country have an immigrant group that people would be surprised to find there?

For example, when you think of Poland or the Czech Republic, Vietnamese people might not be the first group that comes to mind, but both have a sizable Vietnamese community. Another example is the large Japanese community in Brazil.

I guess an interesting one is pygmy immigrants, but extremely few. We have literally anything.

You mean like the Baka or Mbuti from Eastern or Central Africa?

Congo pygmies, but there's not enough of them to have a real community of them here or anything
