Norway maples are native to Europe and western Asia, On Wikipedia, It says Norway maples are native to Western Europe,

Norway maples were planted for decoration and made their way to the U.S.

Norway maples are found from Canada to the Carolinas

Norway maples are invasive to the northeastern U.S. from Maine to Wisconsin, south to Tennessee and Virginia, and also in the Pacific Northwest. They are invasive because during reforestation they grew with other trees and adapted to the environment.

If we cut these trees down on sight, we can stop their invasiveness.
