Profile
The French Diaspora
The United States is home to the largest community of people of French Diaspora. According to the last census of 2010, more than 11.5 million Americans claim French ancestry that represents the Diaspora from France. The French Diaspora make up more than 10% of the population in New England, through the emigration from Quebec between 1840 and 1930, and in Louisiana, through the French colonization of the region, the re-localization of deported Acadians and later immigration from Saint-Domingue and from continental France. French is the fourth most spoken language in the United States, after English, Spanish and Chinese with over 2 million speakers.

The French Diaspora community in United States is made up of several distinct groups, including Huguenot refugees in the Thirteen British Colonies, French settlers in Louisiana, Acadian exiles, French colonists fleeing Saint-Domingue following the Haitian Revolution, and French Canadian immigrants between the 1840s and the 1930s, as well as a steady immigration from continental France since the American Revolution. Around 2 million French people immigrated to the United States, both from France and from the former French colonies in North America. From 1830 to 1986, 772,000 Frenchmen immigrated to the United States. Between the 1840s and the 1930s, around 900,000 French Canadians immigrated to the United States.
