	Never thought that Cote d'Ivoire would beat out Brazil, Netherlands, and South Africa.

	wow at there being no brazil... surely that can't be right... i'd say there are at least 2 million immigrants living in the fevolas in rio de janeiro...

	This survey just takes legal immigrants into account and Brazil only has ~650k of them.

Comment below threshold: show it

	They are probably "legal" refugees fleeing wars. Many Iraqi's went to Jordan for example. Ivory Coast isn't very stable, but probably less deadly than some of its neighbors. So the immigrants are in those paradises(!) "legally", but only by default because it's better than where they were! Good, CHALLENGING QUIZ!

	Of course, the US is an immigrant nation (we've got plenty of illegal ones too). Diversity

	Surprised to see a few of these.

	@smarty They're called favelas, not "fevolas". I'm not sure how accurate a quiz like this can be - aren't the figures just estimated?

	@Handel: This quiz only counts legal immigrants, so the numbers are presumably official government statistics.

	Some really surprising ones there. I only got Kazakhstan, Jordan & Ukraine in the last few minutes. Missed Cote D'Ivoire and Israel. How did I miss Israel? DOH

	How did you come up with your number for Italy?

	Also, I have issue with combining Hong Kong and Macau numbers with China. I don't want to start a political argument about Hong Kong, but it does maintain it's own immigration department. Most of the immigration visas in HK are issued to mainland Chinese -- so by combining, your value for China is artificially inflated by internal migration. Mainland China alone would not make your list.
