Answer:

2. Europe

Step-by-step explanation:

Texas is still majority white, and the main reason for that is the large number of European immigrants who arrived in the state during the Reconstruction era, and the decades after.

Most of the European immigrants came from Germany, a diverse nation that was only unified in 1871.

Immigrants also came from the Czech Republic, Slovakia, Poland, Ireland, and Ukraine.
