country.

asians to the united

Explanation:

Brief Explanations

The Emergency Quota Act of 1921 aimed to limit immigration. It set quotas based on nationality. For example, it used the 1910 census to determine the number of immigrants allowed from each country. This was a form of restriction but not a complete ban. Asians were already restricted by earlier laws (like the Chinese Exclusion Act). Banning immigration between 1901 - 1921 or ending immigration from Germany specifically was not the main goal. The key was limiting numbers per country.

Answer:

limit the number of immigrants from a given country.
