1. Most immigrants were from China or another Asian nation. This only applies to Angel Island in San Francisco Bay which makes sense due to the geographic convenience in an era of boat transportation. Hundreds of thousands of Chinese and other Asians (and some Mexicans) were processed here.

2. Immigrants had to pass health inspections before being admitted to the United States. This applies to both places. They both had hospital facilities for the medical examination and quarantine of sick or disabled immigrants.

3. Immigrants could be denied entry or sent back to their home countries. This applies to both of them but differently. Only 3% of immigrants arriving at Ellis Island were denied entry and deported while 18% of those who arrived at Angel Island were deported back to Asia (mainly China).

Most immigrants were from China or another Asian nation.

<em>This statement applies to Angel Island.</em>

Angel Island Immigration Station was located in San Francisco and operated between 1910-1940. It was sometimes called 'Ellis Island of the West' but the main difference between those two was that the majority of immigrants processed at Angel Island were from  China and other Asian nations such as Japan and India.

Immigrants had to pass health inspections.

<em>This statements applies to both.</em>

At both stations the arriving immigrants had to pass a medical exam which was invasive sometimes. The south of Ellis Island featured a public health hospital where about 10% of immigrants would go for further medical inspections. 355 babies were born there. The same medical examination was taken at Angel Island, many Chinese immigrants complained that the extensive physical examinations violated their cultural norms. Infectious disease were most looked for in immigrants.

Immigrants could be denied entry.

<em>This statement applies to both.</em>

At Ellis Island, only between 1 to 3 % of all arriving immigrants were rejected entry to the United States, at Angel Island the number was around 18%. The Chinese were especially targeted because they were seen as a threat to the economy. They occupied low-wage jobs and the the number of immigrants from China was large.

What happens in world history if the American Revolution fails?
QveST [7]

Answer:

If the US lost the American revolution, I'd think you would end up seeing a similar relationship that the UK had with Canada, Australia, etc.

The immediate consequences would have resulted in the founding fathers executions or imprisonment. Some like Franklin, who were seen as more worldly may have kept their freedom but overall all those guys probably would be done as political actors. The British would have made the colonies pay for much of the cost of the war and the continued stationing of massive amounts of solders.

Over time the British would have probably continued to expand their control over the lands between the Appalachians and the Mississippi, resulting in a series of further colonies. Many of these colonies would be simple expansions of already existing colonies like New York, Pennsylvania and Virgina. I believe all three had claims to lands West of the Appalachians, claims that had to be dealt with and truncated in the new America, but may have been left alone in a 19th century British colonial America.

Marizza181 [45]
The correct answer is <span>civil solidarity pacts

The notion of marriage in most countries today is still revolving around the idea of a man and a woman. As it is changing and marriage is starting to incorporate people of the LGBT population or anything similar, then the country decided to make the civil solidarity pact enabled which makes you the same as if you're married, but you're not really married in the formal sense. </span>
