What was the push factor that brought many european jews to the united states beginning in the late 1800s? famine overpopulation religious persecution political unrest

Religious Persecution

the group i'm selecting: greeks.

a first group of greek immigrants came to the us in the 1850s. the second group came to america starting in the 1890s due to economic opportunities they didn't have back in their home caused by the hardships of ottoman rule. greek immigration was 90% male, many of them expected to work and return to greece after earning enough capital, but ultimately had to remain in the us after the greek genocide.

jewish people sniffed up all of the money, thus making it hard for society
