We could set aside land from immigrants to come to, separate to native society. If they, over a set period of time, prove themselves to be law abiding and there is space in the country, they can integrate. If they are not law abiding, they can stay there or go somewhere else.

Trouble is, there need to be a place it can be done. In Africa, everywhere's full due to excessive reproduction and/or too hostile. Maybe we can use a place like Montana or SW Wales

Also, you don't seem to have a very well developed view of population density. Africa isn't that densely populated, yet, and some places aren't dense at all. The Sahara isn't densely populated, and never will be.

"well duh the sahara is sparse for a reason"

so is Montana. The weather's shit, there are no cities, the terrain's not good for anything. Sounds a lot like the Sahara tbh.

also the definition of a city is pretty subjective. mostly the governments choose it. There are "cities" of less than 1000 folk in the world.

let's play the "rationalist taboo" game you are fond of.

Ox = city over 100k or so (I'm guessing)
you = whatever the government says

Nouakchott is a city in the Sahara with nearly a million people. I was comparing the two regions, because they have a lot of similar traits, hence why they are both sparsely populated. You decided to say that I was wrong because Montana has some small to average size cities..? You did what you usually do, and that is focus in on literally one word instead of comment on the idea at all. Forgive me if I'm jumping to conclusions, but I believe that's a common trait in autistic people. Ubermenschen indeed.

I hate this idea for so many reasons.

Firstly, and most obvious one, you'd need the government to buy or seize land from its citizens, and then give it to foreigners. I can only imagine how thrilled people will be when they learn that.

Secondly, you're just gonna create a proxy country inside your own country, segregation never really worked well, and chances are you're just gonna end up with a bunch of people wanting their own laws and rules, making any prospect of them joining the "main" country an impossible thing.

Thirdly, you're not helping anyone assimilate into your country, which MUST be your objective with immigration. You got to offer people education, teach them your culture and language, offer them the same rights as citizens and the same duties as well.

Fourthly, the best way to assimilate large ammounts of migrants is to spread them out in your country, putting everyone into "guettos" will make it impossible for them to really become citizens.

Lastly, it's very hard to measure if someone is ready to integrate your society, you have very subjective jugements to make, you need to put a lot of ressources into it, and at the end of the day you can just fail, letting people that shouldn't enter, in, and people that should enter, out (a lot like prison lol).

We can set up something similar to Native American Reservations.

Here is a map of all native American reservations (https://earthzine.org/wp-content/uploads/2015/04/image021.jpg)

Japanball if you feel you have cause, when you reach the age of majority, and can cast a vote, vote against immigration, or to severely limit it. Before that time you may write to your elected officials. It is the usual practice for them to reply to you. Their responses can be of interest.

As to your proposal of segregating immigrants in concentration camps, it is by turns, ridiculous and morally wrong.
