After an arduous sea voyage, immigrants arriving at Ellis Island were tagged with information from their ship's registry; they then waited on long lines for medical and legal inspections to determine if they were fit for entry into the United States.

From 1892 to 1924, Ellis Island was America's largest and most active immigration station, where over 12 million immigrants were processed. On average, the inspection process took approximately 3-7 hours.

More than 120,000 immigrants were sent back to their countries of origin, and during the island's half-century of operation more than 3,500 immigrants died there. Ellis Island waylaid certain arrivals, including those likely to become public charges, such as unescorted women and children.

navik [9.2K]
According to the structural-functional approach, the one that considered as a direct benefit of disengagement from work is: It allows the next generation to transition into jobs. 
Especially when a worker became too old for his job, it would be really beneficial if they start to train a younger potential replacement for him when his retirement time come.

How did many europeans react to the outbreal of war in august 1914
Ilia_Sergeevich [38]
At the beginning of the great war, many people were actually enthusiastic about the war (and at least supported it), which was fuelled by nationalism ( and the desire to prove themselves better than other nations) and perhaps hopes for territory gain; at the time it was not known that the Great War would come with such a great loss of life.
