The world’s largest refugee encampment, over 500,000 people, is located in one of the poorest countries in the world, Bangladesh. The refugees are the Rohingya, fleeing from “ethnic cleansing” in Myanmar.
Last year, in 2018, the U.S. accepted a total of 21,000 refugees. That is the total from all areas. I don’t have the total figures for Rohingya refugees, but it is less than 1% of what Bangladesh has accepted.
Rohingya refugees are Muslims.
