Which term describes the wave of immigrants from Eastern Europe and other regions in the late 19th century?

• A. Inflation
• B. Urban
• C. City Life
• D. New Immigrations

Answer: (D)

This question tests how we label different waves of immigrants to the United States. The late 1800s brought a new influx of people from Southern and Eastern Europe and other regions, distinct from earlier arrivals. The term that captures this newer wave is New Immigrations. It highlights a shift in where people came from and when they arrived, often settling in industrial cities and contributing to urban growth and diversity. Inflation is an economic term about rising prices and not about immigration, while urban or city life describes where people lived rather than naming a migration wave.
