Overview of Asia and It's People.
Overview of Asia and It's People.
East Asia includes, the most well-known parts of Asia (by Westerners at least), China, Hong Kong,
Taiwan, North & South Korea, Japan, and Mongolia. These are the ones people mainly think of when
they think of Asians. In our area of Northern Virginia, Koreans
make up the majority of East Asian immigrants. I went to school
with many Korean-American kids in the really nice, suburban
community of Springfield, VA. There is a Korean family that I
have visited, and they go to our place of worship. They live in
Burke, VA.
Chinese have formed a huge, immigrant base in the U.S. There
are many Chinatowns in the U.S. There are Chinese restaurants in almost every community in the U.S.
I love Chinese food, esp. Shrimp-fried rice, General Tsos chicken and others. I especially, enjoy the All
You Can Eat places.
I am very fascinated by Japanese people, and their culture.
