Question

which conditions served as push factors for southern and eastern european immigrants in the late 1800s? (select the three correct answers.) (3 points)
lack of farming land
peaceful political climate
poor living conditions
forced military service
abundant job opportunities
religious freedom

Explanation:

Push factors are negative conditions in a home region that drive people to emigrate. Lack of farming land limited livelihoods for agricultural communities. Poor living conditions (e.g., overcrowding, inadequate resources) reduced quality of life. Forced military service (common in autocratic regimes) posed personal risk. Peaceful political climate, abundant jobs, and religious freedom are pull factors (attractions to a new region), not push factors.

Answer:

Lack of farming land, Poor living conditions, Forced military service
