The Caucasian or white Americans records in as the race which has been in the majority of the U.S history. This was according to a research that was done for the last three years concerning the environmental effects of the country. For this reason, they are considered as the majority because of their social standing and their increased numbers in the country. Alternatively, the most common ancestral background of members of these groups is European. The main reason why they came to the United States was to forge the new opportunities in the country (King, & Springwood, 2011). From my point of view, it is true to say that American country has been infected with high population. Relating this to the research that was done for the last three years, the American population is considered as one of the countries which record the highest number of immigrants.
