The Gregorian calendar is currently used in the Western World, both as the civil and Christian ecclesiastical calendar.
Its original form was the Julian calendar (proposed by Julius Caesar).
The Gregorian calendar was introduced by Pope Gregory XIII in October 1582.
The Revenue Act of 1767, also referred to as the Townshend Duties, taxed glass, lead, paint, paper, and tea coming into the Anglo-American colonies. That year, wealthy landowners in Britain had used their political influence to cut their taxes by a fourth, causing a massive deficit in the British treasury. Chancellor Charles Townshend made up for this deficit via the Revenue Act.
In reality, the duties brought in very little revenue, with the exception of the taxes on tea. All they really did was provoke the colonists. Assemblies all over the colonies denounced the Act, calling for its repeal. Yet another boycott of British goods was enacted, which motivated merchants in Britain to push for the repeal of the Act as well. All this tension led to violence in the colonies, culminating in the Boston Massacre in March 1770. Parliament relented and repealed most of the Townshend Duties.

Answer:
They left for money, land and god.
Explanation:
European immigrants left their home, their families, and their friends for a land that was vastly unknown and uncertain. Yet, they came for the sole purpose of more land, more money, and more freedom. They, like many other immigrants came for a chance at a better life. Many immigrants still come with the same mindset, they see the United States as a land of opportunity. The U.S. is full of jobs and good public education and that's why the U.S. seems to be such a hotspot for immigrants.
