Question 9 • RMA FL-2100310-United States History Semester 1

In which trend does a push factor of religious persecution most likely play a part?

Answer
A
Italian immigration
B
Irish immigration
C
Russian immigration

Explanation

Religious persecution was a major reason many Jews left the Russian Empire and immigrated to the United States, especially in the late 19th and early 20th centuries. Irish immigration was more strongly driven by famine and poverty, while Italian immigration was largely driven by economic hardship. Therefore, the trend is Russian immigration.
