Similar factors pushed immigrants from their home countries and into the United States. These are called push-pull factors. Immigrants left their homelands because of poverty, war, or starvation. The main factor that pulled immigrants to the United States was purely economical. Many of them had hopes of securing jobs or land. 

The overseas journey was very difficult for immigrants. Most of them traveled in steerage, and many of them became ill during their long voyage in cramped and dirty quarters. Ellis Island in New York Harbor became the main entry point for European immigrants. Upon arrival, doctors inspected immigrants for diseases, and officials interviewed them about their background. Those with diseases or certain political views were refused entry. 

Immigrants from Asia arrived at Angel Island in San Francisco Bay. However, by that time Angel Island opened in 1910, the Chinese Exclusion Act had already put limitations on Chinese immigration. Angel Island officials often held  immigrants at facilities for months before accepting or rejecting their entries.

tankabanditka [31]

Answer:

Détente

Explanation:

Détente is a word of French origin that means to ease hostilities with an adversary.

When Nixon took office in 1969, he promoted a détente policy with the Soviet Union and China, advised by his secretary of the state: Henry Kissinger.

Nixon visited China in 1972, and met personally with Mao Zedong. This event was the start of a new relation between the U.S. and China.

He also met with Soviet leader Leonid Brezhnev in 1972, and reached important agreements like the Anti-Ballistic missile treaty.

Most historians coincide that this policy of détente was successful, and helped Nixon become reelected.
