About: The term melting pot is defined as a place where people of different ethnic origins and cultures all come together to mix and merge, creating a new culture — not necessarily a monolithic or homogeneous one, but one that is reflective of some sort of shared template for society. For example, America.
Detail: The melting pot concept is most commonly used to describe the assimilation of immigrants to the United States, though it can be used in any context where a new culture comes to coexist with another. In recent times, refugees from the Middle East have created melting pots throughout Europe and the Americas.
