Immigration on ireland  Sometimes, moving too a new place can
help you, even though you’re going away from your family,
friends, culture, and land just so you can stay alive. Well,
that’s just what the Irish had too do. The Irish immigrated
during the 1850s out of Ireland and this is very important to
the people in Ireland.  The reason why the Irish had to give up
of the things they valued that is because they had no food. They
also had no jobs so they couldn’t take care of themselves.
Another reason they moved is because of fear of violence. Crime
of people steeling the animals from hunger, turned into violence
to stay alive. It was hard in Ireland, with no food or jobs.
That’s why they left Ireland for other places, especially
America.  “Why America?”. The answer is clear. They knew that
there would be hope for them, and jobs to help them live. So
they moved to Americas east coast and from there some went
further to the West, traveling long distances.
