8/10/2019 Overview of Asia and it's people.

1/7

The Asian continent

East Asiaincludes, 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.
