<span>southern and eastern Europe
   
The reasons these new immigrants made the journey to America differed little from those of their predecessors. Escaping religious, racial, and political persecution, or seeking relief from a lack of economic opportunity or famine still pushed many immigrants out of their homelands. Many were pulled here by contract labor agreements offered by recruiting agents, known as padrones to Italian and Greek laborers. Hungarians, Poles, Slovaks, Bohemians, and Italians flocked to the coal mines or steel mills, Greeks preferred the textile mills, Russian and Polish Jews worked the needle trades or pushcart markets of New York. Railroad companies advertised the availability of free or cheap farmland overseas in pamphlets distributed in many languages, bringing a handful of agricultural workers to western farmlands. But the vast majority of immigrants crowded into the growing cities, searching for their chance to make a better life for themselves.</span>

What has been one major problem in south Africa since the end of apartheid
harina [27]

After the end of the apartheid, South Africa changed significantly, with the black population gaining all the rights that they deserved and were neglected for very long time. Unfortunately, that was not the only change. The country entered a new political era, and lot of politicians in this nation were without proper education or experience in politics. This led to large scale corruption, thus the economy of the country started to slow down in its development. Another big problem was and still is that some of the leaders are propagating racism, and they motivate the black population to take revenge on the white population for the past and exterminate them. This has led to lot of sexual violations, murders, and destruction of properties of white people in South Africa, so instead of the problem with the racism being solved, it actually just changed sides and became even more extreme.
