<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 changed in American foreign policy from Samoa to Hawaii?
g100num [7]

Answer:

The United States changed from Isolationism to Imperialism

Explanation:

Before the period of 1890 to 1914. The United States foreign policy was termed Isolationism due to the government's insistence to always appear neutral to any conflicting party. However, by the late 19th century to the early 20th century, The United States foreign policy changed from Isolationism to Imperialism.

This was evident in the US government takeover of Spanish colonies such as Guam, Puerto Rico, Philippines, and unclaimed territory in areas such as Hawaii, Samoa, and Wake Island. This enhances the foreign image of the United States as a world power.
