They didn't.

actually the word I used was "arriving", not landing, and they did indeed arrive primarily in the south, no matter where they first placed foot on american soil. As a wave of immigrants they primarily settled, or arrived, in the south, via whatever route of entrance, and there had their lasting effect on aour american history. Although many or even most may have made land in Philly, they arrived at their final destination, the south, thereafter.

Just clarifying.

Apologies to the rabble for the sidebar. Back to your regularly scheduled programming.
