This period also saw a significant wave of immigrants from Algeria. Although many initially returned to the country after a few years, as the Vietnam War situation worsened, a majority decided to remain in France and brought their families over as well. Following the partition of Vietnam, students and professionals from South Vietnam continued to arrive in France. These migrants consisted of those who were loyal to the colonial government and those married to French colonists. During the period of reconstruction, France lacked labor, and as a result, the French government was eager to recruit immigrants coming from all over Europe, the Americas, Africa and Asia.Īlthough there was a presence of, Vietnamese in France since the late 19th century (mostly students and workers), a wave of Vietnamese migrated to the country after the Battle of Dien Bien Phu and the Geneva Accords, which granted Vietnam its independence from France in 1954. Right after the Second World War, immigration to France significantly increased. By 1930, the Paris region alone had a North African Muslim population of 70,000. In the wake of the First World War, in which France suffered six million casualties, significant numbers of workers from French colonies came. The pace of industrial growth attracted millions of European immigrants over the next century, with especially large numbers arriving from Poland, Belgium, Portugal, Italy, and Spain. ( October 2011)įrance's population dynamics began to change in the middle of the 19th century, as France joined the Industrial Revolution. Of the total of 229,000 new foreigners coming to France in 2012, nearly 8% were Portuguese, British 5%, Spanish 5%, Italians 4%, Germans 4%, Romanians 3%, and Belgians 3%. in this period went from 5300 to 11,000 people. Statistics on Spanish immigrants in France show a growth of 107 percent between 20, i.e. In 2014, The National Institute of Statistics (INSEE) published a study reporting that the number of Spanish, Portuguese, and Italian immigrants in France between 20 has doubled.This increase resulting from the financial crisis that hit several European countries in that period, has pushed up the number of Europeans settled in France. Including grandparents, about 22% of newborns in France between 20 had at least one foreign-born grandparent (9% born in another European country, 8% born in Maghreb and 2% born in another region of the world). Īmong the 802,000 newborns in metropolitan France in 2010, 27.3% had one or both parents foreign-born, and about one quarter (23.9%) had one parent or both born outside of Europe. As of 2006, about 45% of people (6 million) living in the region were either immigrant (25%) or born to at least one immigrant parent (20%). The Paris region is a magnet for immigrants, hosting one of the largest concentrations of immigrants in Europe. Other regions with important immigrant populations are Rhône-Alpes (Lyon) and Provence-Alpes-Côte d'Azur (Marseille). The area with the largest proportion of immigrants is the Parisian urban area (Greater Paris), where almost 40% of immigrants lived in 2012.
This is a decrease from INSEE statistics in 2018 in which there were 9 million immigrants (foreign-born people) in France, which at the time represented 14% of the country's total population. All EU residence permits show Zeus in the guise of a white bull his appearance in the legend of Europa.Īccording to the French national institute of statistics INSEE, the 2021 census counted nearly 7 million immigrants (foreign-born people) in France, representing 10.3% of the total population.
