Taiwan is a society of immigrants. History has seen the arrival of Aboriginal people, the Dutch, the Japanese, Hoklo, Hakka, and people from all areas of China on this island. Recently there has also been a large influx of Southeast Asian laborers and brides.
台灣是個移民社會，四周環繞的海域，歷史上帶來了原住民、荷蘭人、日本人，及中國社會閩、客、外省等不同族群，晚近又遷入了大量的東南亞勞工與外籍新娘。
