America's stance on immigration changed during the 1920's. Before this time, America was known as a land of opportunity where immigrants from all over can come to start a new life. However, due to the increase in nativism, this idea changed in the 1920's.
Nativism is a concept based around protecting the interests, wants, and needs of native born citizens over immigrants. Nativists usually feared or were angry at immigrants coming into the US, as they felt they would try to change American society or would take their job. This resulted in the passing of the Immigration Act of 1924. This limited the amount of immigrants from specific countries.This law allowed for a significant amount of citizens from Germany and Great Britain to come in. However, the following countries were limited to 100 people per country:
1) Syria
2) Egypt
3) Turkey

The question should be "What began a period of great antagonism between the crown and the colonies?"
Answer and Explanation
After the French and Indian war, various colonies claimed the right to expand their boundaries as far as River Mississippi River due to their fast increasing population and the need for more land to enhance settlement.
The crown, typically the British government, wanted to restrict the settlements of the colonies to ensure that they had full royal control over existing settlements before the formation of new ones are allowed. The crown then attempted to forcefully put a stop to the western land claim of the colonies and eradicate expansion to the west. The colonies saw this as an encroachment on their rights to settle westwards.
