conditions that caused people to emigrate from their homelands to North
America (Canada and the United States).

The Human Side of Immigration Italian Emigration to America - 1906.
The study of race migrations has gone far enough to bring out the
dominant fact that economic causes are at the heart of these movements.
Adventure has played its part, and war (with plunder for its aim) a still greater
part, but plunder was the economics of the barbarian, while the lode-star
guiding the worlds most romantic adventure was the glitter of precious metals.
It is even a little chilling to learn how the most gallant of these explorers
did not for a moment forget that they were out for the dust of the gods.
