German Immigration  :

The German immigration was due to many Germans in the constant seeking of religious freedom. Also many came after the Napoleonic wars, they were running away from the political oppression and military involvement . The unsolved political situation led to an increase in their migration. The Germans leaven their country to travel to the United States was also due to that they all believed in the american dream and there ideas were influenced by family members,friends,solicitors and officials.

Their journey to the united states took months. The Germans had to afford train tickets and boat tickets.
First they took trains departing from Germany to the coast. were they would spend up to a week. After they arrived to the coast they had to board this ships on which they would be on during six months. sometimes entire families or sometimes teens alone took this long journey seeking for a better life. ships were overcrowded with Germans and many got sick thymus fever was the most common. it was based on 2,814/446 died o the way!
        During their life's in the USA most Germans lived on the country side. They were mostly all farmers,whom made up most of the agricultural industry on that region. Meanwhile the Germans living in the cities would be living on these German villages compared to ''chinatowns''. Although not many German women had jobs they did house hold chores. Also Germans did not get along in large groups these divisions were more present when  ideology and religion was brought up. Also depending on what part of Germany you came from.
           In my personal view just like all people migrating they all face challenges, struggles, and death. But this doesn't affect the way I view migration since Im completely in favor of migration. But yet its quite chocking how similar their trips were compared to the salve ships and their diseases.  I enjoyed searching for their history and its quite fascinating how much history there is behind Germany.
