A decade after 1 million migrants arrived in Germany from war-torn countries like Syria, Iran and Afghanistan, the country has changed. While the migrants were initially welcomed by Germans, who opened their homes and helped integrate the newcomers, the migrants' arrival has also polarized society. Anger over migration has helped the rise of the far-right Alternative for Germany to become the country's second strongest party, and even Germany's current government has made curbing irregular migration one its priorities. Despite some hostility, many migrants have integrated well in society, found jobs, and even became German citizens.
