European immigrants were primarily motivated by economic opportunities, such as the availability of jobs in factories, mines, and railroads. Many were also escaping political unrest, religious persecution, and poverty in their home countries. The promise of land through the Homestead Act and the allure of the American Dream also played significant roles in attracting immigrants.
