One of the largest human migrations in history happened at the turn of the century. Many people left their home countries to come to the United States. This is called emigration – leaving your homeland to make a long journey to a new country. A person who moves to a new country is an immigrant. © 2014 Brain Wrinkles

Slavic Immigrant Family in the Baggage Room of Ellis Island, 1905

Most immigrants came to America in search of a better life. Most were poor and wanted to escape Europe’s rigid class system. If you were born poor in Europe, you had little chance of moving into the middle or upper class. They believed that class didn’t matter as much in America because if you worked hard, you could find a better life. © 2014 Brain Wrinkles

Immigrants were also trying to escape wars and persecution. There were many wars in Europe during this time. Many people were killed, homes were destroyed, young mend were forced to serve in armies. People were also harassed because of their religious beliefs. © 2014 Brain Wrinkles

Some immigrants traveled to the Midwest, where they became farmers. Most immigrants were so poor that they settled near the place where they came into the US. They settled in America’s growing cities, like New York City, Chicago, & Boston. They often settled in neighborhoods with other immigrants who spoke the same language and shared the same culture. © 2014 Brain Wrinkles
