Where were most of the immigrants after 1885 from?
where were the main countries?
Answer:
Mostly Italian, some Irish, some Germans, many Eastern Europeans - Polish being the largest group, Scandinavians - mainly Swedish and Norwegian.
In the latter half of the 20th century, the US received many Eastern European immigrants after the fall of the Soviet Union. There are also many Filipinos, Jews from all over Europe (especially after World War II), Mexicans, etc. There are so many groups - it's hard to list them all.
The Germans and the Irish immigrated before 1885 in very large numbers, but they continued to immigrate in large numbers after 1885, as well.
