Immigrants were Americanized under the neutralization act which offered the immigrants to accept the American values beliefs and customs by assimilating into American society.
Explanation:
Immigrants came to US in search of better living opportunities but it was a struggle for them as they have a forgotten past and they have to struggle in the present by learning the new language and maintain a stable living in a totally new country and surroundings.
It was challenging for the immigrants but they were able keep a balance by some immigrants taking a top stage in entertainment industry. People were able to express their life and struggle in through music, literature and poetry.
Some immigrants felt themselves to be inspired to settle in such a great country like United States.

I don't know what "all other" factors could mean - since we don't know what factors have already been mentioned - but I assume that the pay and work conditions would be the same (those could be the "all other" here and the difference is Italy vs Germany/Belgium).
Generally, Italy is not a very likely destination for migrant workers, since it has recently been struggling economically. The payment, working conditions and work stability are likely to be better in Germany or Belgium, so if one can find a job, there, one is more likely to go to Germany or Belgium
