 Can migrations have a positive impact on the people and/or land receiving the immigrants?

    In my opinion both the people and the land receiving immigrants were positively effected by receiving immigrants. For example during the rule of Ghengis Khan the mongols would conquer people and gaining new war methods and people who would then fight for him. With more people the Mongolian empire expanded its borders. Another example is in America immigrants come into America everyday and they do the jobs most Americans wouldn't do. For example farming they are working the land and picking the greens that Americans eat. Also Americans have the benefit of making immigrants work for way under minimum wage. Cheap labor gives Americans more prophet without working or paying very much. I think that most civilizations past and present benefit very much from the help of immigrants
