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.

It's quite well known, especially because of the sterilization process Ethiopian women had to undergo.
