Answer:

The correct answer is the The Irish Famine

Explanation:

Also known as the Potato Famine of Ireland and the Great Famine. It started around 1845 and lasted till 1849.

The famine caused hunger and disease to go rampant and killed almost a million people. During the time, Ireland saw one of the great migrations take place as thousands left for the United States to seek a better life.

When the Famine was over, the demographics of the country had completely changed.

By the 1900, New York had more Irish than Dublin and today over 34 million Americans have Irish ancestry. Which is 5 times the population of Ireland itself

Answer: The Gold Rush In California.

Explanation:  The event that caused a great influence of immigrants to enter the United States was The Gold Rush in California. With this social phenomenon, not only Americans from other states felt motivated to emigrate to California, but many immigrants from other countries did too. At the beginning the search for the mineral resource was done in a simple way, exploring the rivers and streams where it was believed the precious metal could be found, then, there were more advanced techniques for its extraction. Many people who knew about this news did not hesitate to leave everything behind and take a new course towards the United States of America.

Anarchists believe that the best government is no government at all. Do you believe that society can function in a state of anar
Elena-2011 [213]

I believe that a society can function in a state of anarchy only as long as all of the citizens residing in that state care for the public welfare as much as they care for their personal welfare. A society in which there is no structure cannot stand however a society with structure not upheld by a government can stand as long as all of the citizens residing inside of the society uphold it themselves. It must be a utopian society in which the golden rule is the law and no one violates it and remains in the community. For a society without structure will collapse.

timama [110]

This information is important to let the public know what is happening. And it gives people knowledge about what happens. It is also important because, people who read this, would find it rather unpleasant and would have the urge to speak up and try to put it to an end or reduce the rate at which it happens in their society.
