am i missing something or is there no meme?

I think they are referring to the British settlements that led to modern America..?

The illegal immigrants in this case would be European settlers and the added text makes the meme, I think. I had to double take on this one as well.

yeah, but i just dont really understand the map. is it just a map showing where the native population lived before colonization or is there an actual joke in there?
