there is nothing *special* about California that wouldn't make the state susceptible to anyone's arrival - no matter where the settler/conquerer is from. i'm wondering what prompted your query? i remember (a brazilian years ago) when my 9th grade class was assigned to read "Two Years Before the Mast" by Richard Henry Dana. that book began to open my eyes to the impact of foreign *settlement* on the indigenous peoples of any particular area. i'm so grateful to my 9th grade teacher for having assigned that particular reading material.
