Question

how did industrialization in northern europe cause immigration to the united states? (1 point)
○ by consuming already scarce land and resources
○ by paying people higher wages so they could travel
○ by breaking down political barriers through commerce
○ by partnering with u.s. entrepreneurs to relocate workers

Explanation:

To determine the answer, we analyze the impact of industrialization in Northern Europe on U.S. immigration:

• Option 1: Industrialization in Northern Europe led to resource (including land) scarcity as populations and industries grew, pushing people to seek better opportunities in the U.S. This aligns with historical migration patterns.
• Option 2: Higher wages in Northern Europe during industrialization would likely retain workers, not push them to immigrate.
• Option 3: Political barriers to migration were not a primary driver of Northern European immigration to the U.S. during industrialization; economic factors were more prominent.
• Option 4: Partnering with U.S. entrepreneurs to relocate workers is not a historically accurate driver of this immigration wave.

Answer:

by consuming already scarce land and resources
