Greek immigrants

Greek immigrants are individuals who have moved from Greece to other countries, often seeking better economic opportunities, education, or refuge from political instability. Major waves of Greek immigration occurred in the late 19th and early 20th centuries, especially to the United States, driven by poverty and industrialization. They typically settled in urban areas, contributing to local cultures while maintaining their traditions. Today, Greek communities worldwide celebrate their heritage, influencing areas such as cuisine, music, and the arts. This immigrant experience reflects broader themes of migration, adaptation, and cultural exchange.
