The primary reason that large numbers of people left Ireland in the 1840s and 1850s was MASS STARVATION.

Great Famine or Great Hunger was a period in Ireland where mass starvation, diseases, and emigration occurred between 1845 to 1852.

The Great Famine was caused by Phytophthora infestans, a disease that infests in potatoes. Though the potato infestation spread throughout Europe, it greatly affected Ireland, where 1/3 of its population was dependent on the potato crop as their primary source of food.

The loss of their primary source of food led to mass starvation, sickness, and eventual death. Others opted to leave Ireland and seek shelter and food in other countries to survive.

Why did people migrate into the forest region and how was life there different from the rest of West Africa?
Arlecino [84]
<span>I think the fact that there was no single ruler in the stateless societies allowed them to endure for many centuries. No family had too much power than the others. The way they resolved their problems also helped them survive for a long time since it allowed them to peacefully talk about the issue without violence. They also had a very organized way to decide to who to pass down the possessions and property too. People were also separated into age-sets where they would pass stages of life with other people in the same generation.</span>
