Why the Germans Immigrated to America <An angry mob -German immigration started when many left due to economic hardship and political unrest -This was caused by riots and rebellion -Over 1 million Germans fled the country -Many Germans had little choice to go to America because few other places allowed German immigration

The Immigrants Finding Work -Irish Immigrants were very poor and unskilled -Most women worked in factories and as housekeepers and cooks in homes of the wealthy. - Most men worked in mines a) This job was full of hardships and was also a major health hazard b) Mine owners often did not take necessary health precautions -Wages were extremely low for long days of hard labor -Laborers and their families were required to live in company towns -They were also required to purchase food and other items in company stores
