The Americas are continents with a complex history before European arrival, and a complex history since then, in which commonalities and experiences between the peoples of the Americas are often overlooked. In contrast to the European Union, countries in the Americas are enforcing their borders to stem the huge population flows from desperate regions into more prosperous regions.
