Each dot represents 100 immigrants from a given country. I keep watching this over and over again, thinking about my ancestors who came over in the 1690s, 1890s, 1900s and 1920s.
It's also cool to see how things fluctuate from Europe and Africa to Latin America and Asia--where most immigrants originate today.
