Answer:

In the 1880s, Congress proposed the Chinese Exclusion Act, which  stopped Chinese immigration for a period.

Explanation:

The Chinese Exclusion Act was a law issued on May 6, 1882 in response to the massive immigration of Chinese people to the West Coast, mainly San Francisco. It was the first and only official law in US history directed against representatives of a particular nationality (the remaining discriminatory laws enacted in the United States concerned races in general). The law prohibited any Chinese immigration and / or naturalization of Chinese already residing in the United States (however, Chinese-born children in the United States were already considered US citizens). Initially, the law was supposed to extend to 10 years, but it was valid until 1943. By 1917, similar restrictions were extended to immigrants from Asia as a whole.

How is the modern era similar to the classical era
vampirchik [111]
It's similar in the sense that the predominant type of social organization around the world is democracy. Many countries around the world are trying to implement democracy as a governmental model or already have done so. This was also found in the ancient Greek society. That is one way how it was similar to today. Another thing that is the same is that people still tend to spend their time in the same way hey did before in terms of talking to each other, hanging out, etc. Although this has changed a lot since the classic age.
