Answer:

The first wave of European immigrants arriving in the United States in the 19th century came from Europe.

Explanation:

Europeans formed the mass of immigration to the United States. This immigration began with the colonization of the country, still in the seventeenth century and lasted until the mid-1970s.

England was in a troubled mood. The official religion was the Anglican, and consequently followers of several other Protestant denominations were persecuted. The enclosure of the fields also contributed to thousands of people leaving the rural areas and heading to the cities, which became saturated. The way out of this religious and economic crisis was to immigrate to North America. The first English colony successfully established in North America was Jamestown, Virginia, in 1607. Pilgrims and Puritans settled in Massachusetts in the following years. From there, thousands of Protestants moved there, giving rise to the region known as New England, the embryo for the formation of the Thirteen Colonies and, consequently, the United States.

It is to be noted that many settlers came from other parts of Europe. In 1626 the Indians sold the island of Manhattan for 25 dollars for Dutch colonists to occupy the region of the Hudson River and to found New Amsterdam, where nowadays is New York. Fleeing from religious persecution, thousands of Germans immigrated to Pennsylvania from 1680. The eighteenth century was marked by the arrival of large numbers of immigrants from Scotland and Ireland, who colonized the interior of the Thirteen Colonies. These settlers were quickly assimilated into dominant English culture.
