The correct answer is B) San Francisco has a large, natural harbor where many large boats can dock.

The following geographic factors allowed San Francisco to develop into a major urban center in the 1800s: San Francisco has a large, natural harbor where many large boats can dock.

The first white people coming from the East that arrived at the San Francisco Bay were the members of the Portola Expedition in 1769. In 1776,  a Spanish congregation established a Franciscan mission in the area. With the Gold Rush of 1848, many people started to arrive in San Francisco, including the so-called, "49ers."

Due to the many immigrants from Asia, San Francisco had to establish an immigration office on January 21, 1910, on Angel Island. The office operated until November 1940.

The Emergency Quota Act of 1921 was passed to severely restrict immigration from Eastern and southern Europe. Why were these two
Digiron [165]

These two regions were singled out because many Americans held the perception that individuals from southern and eastern Europe could not be assimilated properly into the culture of the United States. Their languages, customs, and religions were thought to be too different from those of preceding generations of immigrants for full scale integration into American culture. The fear was that these newer immigrants would always be "hyphenates,” or citizens who would call themselves, or be called by others, by such hyphenated names as "Polish-Americans,” "Greek-Americans,” and "Italian-Americans.”

Beyond the fear of being swamped by unassimilable immigrants from eastern and southern Europe was the fear that these immigrants’ increasing numbers would depress wages for American workers. In addition, some people feared the potential of the rising political power of the new class of immigrants.
