North America is a land of immigrants, and not only human immigrants

It was colonized by South American & Asian species after the Chicxulub asteroid devastation & by Asian species (including humans) when the Bering Strait was dry. Then, at the historical (human) scale, Europeans invaded America (15th C) & many subsequent waves of immigration shaped the current North America
