The race in the United States which was dominated by a settler society of religiously and ethnically diverse whites, as a concept became significant in relation to other groups. Traditionally, racist attitudes in the country have been most burdernsomly applied to Native Americans, African Americans and some "foreign-seeming" immigrant groups and their descendants and/or ancestors and is not limited to one racial group's view towards another group. - However, the United Sates government tries to solve racial problems occurring within the country in order to keep the peace of the country.
