History

Answer:

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, and 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. Even so, a relatively large group of Chinese immigrated to the United States between the start of the California gold rush in 1849 and 1882, when federal law stopped their immigration. (hope this helps ^w^)

STRUGGLES IN THE SOUTH (PAGES 160-169)
laiz [17]

Answer:

There were a couple of reasons for moving to the southern colonies. The first would be that they were loosing in the North and wanted to try and pierce the South to get ports and some ground to wage war.

They also believed that many slaves would embrace their liberation and join their cause against their former masters.

If they captured the South ports they could transport troops and equipment a lot quicker and easier from the British West Indies.

And they thought that there were more loyalists in the South and that would mean more domestic manpower for holding the lines.
