Answer:

The number of international migrants globally reached an estimated 272 million in 2019, an increase of 51 million since 2010. Currently, international migrants comprise 3.5 per cent of the global population, compared to 2.8 per cent in the year 2000, according to new estimates released by the United Nations today.

The International Migrant Stock 2019, a dataset released by the Population Division of the UN Department of Economic and Social Affairs (DESA) today, provides the latest estimates of the number of international migrants by age, sex and origin for all countries and areas of the world. The estimates are based on official national statistics on the foreign-born or the foreign population obtained from population censuses, population registers or nationally representative surveys.

In 2019, regionally, Europe hosts the largest number of international migrants (82 million), followed by Northern America (59 million) and Northern Africa and Western Asia (49 million).

Bas_tet [7]

Answer:

The answer is below

Explanation:

Cultural diffusion occurred in Mesoamerica even when the Olmec, Maya, and Aztec didn't rule at the same time as a result of certain occurrences:

The Mesoamerican cultures through the years tried to dominate one another. Thereby, this led to the conquering of neighboring nations which result in the conquered nation being greatly influenced by the cultures of the dominant nation.

For example, the Olmec were the earliest dominant nation, and their culture transcends to other neighboring nations that they conquered such as Mayans. The Olmec cultures were reflected through the rise of Mayan cultures, most especially in terms of architecture, knowledge, and religion.

Similarly, Aztecs were initially dominated by Toltecs and thereby got influenced culturally. The Toltec culture was later reflected in Aztec culture.
