decades: 1941-1950, 1951-1960, 1961-1970, 1971-1980, 1981-1990
y - axis: 0, 1.0 million, 2.0 million, 3.0 million

1. which country (likely \continent\) has the fewest people immigrate between 1941 and 1990?

Explanation:

Step1: Analyze the bar graph

The bar graph shows immigration to the US from Europe, Asia, The Americas, and Africa across decades (1941 - 1950, 1951 - 1960, 1961 - 1970, 1971 - 1980, 1981 - 1990). We observe the height of the bars for each region. The bars for Africa are the shortest across all decades.

Step2: Determine the region with fewest immigrants

By comparing the bar heights (representing number of immigrants) for each region (Europe, Asia, The Americas, Africa), Africa's bars are consistently the lowest, meaning it has the fewest immigrants over the period 1941 - 1990.

Answer:

Africa
