Answer:

Oh i can answer now!

Explanation:

in the late 1800s, people in many parts of the world decided to leave their homes and immigrate to the United States. Fleeing crop failure, land and job shortages, rising taxes, and famine, many came to the U. S. because it was perceived as the land of economic opportunity. Others came seeking personal freedom or relief from political and religious persecution. With hope for a brighter future, nearly 12 million immigrants arrived in the United States between 1870 and 1900. During the 1870s and 1880s, the vast majority of these people were from Germany, Ireland, and England--the principal sources of immigration before the Civil War. That would change drastically in the next three decades.

Immigrants entered the United States through several ports. Those from Europe generally came through East Coast facilities, while those from Asia generally entered through West Coast centers. More than 70 percent of all immigrants, however, entered through New York City, which came to be known as the "Golden Door." Throughout the late 1800s, most immigrants arriving in New York entered at the Castle Garden depot near the tip of Manhattan. In 1892, the federal government opened a new immigration processing center on Ellis Island in New York harbor.

How did stalin use censorship and propaganda to support his rule?
Lubov Fominskaja [6]
Media is a very powerful tool that can be used for either good or bad. The ones who know how to effectively use media are very powerful. Stalin knew this and effectively used it during his reign. The media did celebrate the accomplishments of Stalin and the Communist Party while at the same time attacked anyone who dared say anything. Likewise the material that showed the government in the negative light was not allowed. Thus he strengthened his rule through the clever use of media and censorship.

sammy [17]
