<span>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.</span>
It was very, very important for women to start working during the war because so many people were deployed that the demand for jobs in factories and other places was far higher than there were people available. Also, there were not enough women in the workforce at that time to fill those open positions. They filled many jobs in making supplies for war (that would normally be filled by men). Initially it was difficult to recruit the women (who were originally fitting the bill of "housewives"), and this is where those "We Can Do It" signs with "Rosie the Riveter" came about.
Although the war began with Nazi Germany's attack on Poland in September 1939, the United States did not enter the war until after the Japanese bombed the American fleet in Pearl Harbor, Hawaii, on December 7, 1941.
