The document summarizes patterns of old and new immigration to the United States. The old immigration from 1830-1880 saw many arrivals from northern and western Europe, especially Ireland and Germany fleeing famine and political unrest. The new immigration from the late 1800s to early 1900s saw immigrants mainly from southern and eastern Europe like Italy, Russia, and Poland settling in ethnic neighborhoods in American cities. Some native-born Americans worried these immigrants would not assimilate and resented them for lowering wages, leading to discriminatory groups and laws against Catholic and Chinese immigrants.
The document compares the Articles of Confederation, the U.S. Constitution, and compromises made between the two. It notes that the Articles of Confederation lacked an executive branch and strong central government, while the Constitution established the offices of President and Congress to strengthen the federal government, and made compromises around representation and taxation to gain approval.
After World War I, conflicts continued at home and abroad. Wilson's peace plan faced opposition in Europe and the US Senate. Economically, demobilization hurt businesses and farmers as inflation grew. A Red Scare against foreigners arose due to the Russian Revolution. Labor unrest broke out as unions struck for higher wages faced resistance from management.
