Answer:

A terrible famine in Ireland.

Explanation:

The British were very unfriendly to any kind of Irish nationalism and they cracked down hard. Ireland was primarily reliant on potatoes, and there was a horrible famine. Millions starved, and the British did little to help.

Irish immigrants had a very low standing in America, and were persecuted.

There wasn't free land in the West for the Irish.

The Irish people were not necessarily skilled artisans or craftsmen. Many of them were farmers, peasant folk, or factory workers who bargained their way to America.

Alona [7]

Answer: As a nation dependent on the institution of slavery, the United States feared that the Haitian Revolution would lead to a revolt in the American South.

Explanation:

In the United States, there were mixed reactions to the Haitian Revolution which freed the enslaved people of Haiti as on the one hand, throwing of the shackles of their colonial masters like the Americans did was reminiscent of the America Revolution.

On the other hand however, the United States was quite dependent on the agricultural activities of the South which relied heavily on slavery. The US therefore feared that the Revolution would lead to a revolt in the American South which led them to refuse recognition of Haiti till the year 1862.
