Answer:

The correct answer is False.

Explanation:

Irish and German immigrants did not come to America seeking religious freedom, they sought better opportunities and a better life. Most of the <em>Irish immigrants</em> that left their homeland were <em>poor farmers</em> that could not generate enough income to survive. They depended on potato crops to eat. Also, they suffered a terrible famine due to three years' failure of this crop, many Irish died from starvation and around two million moved to the U.S. Similarly, many German immigrants left Germany because of economic hardships and civil unrest (riots and rebellion). Both Irish and German immigrants landed in cities and started working in big industries. They suffered religious discrimination as most of them were Roman Catholics.
