Europeans immigrate to America! Reasons include: 1. Religious Persecution… being killed because of their religion 2. Famine or disease in their home country 3. The desire for a better life without living in poverty. 4. America was a land of opportunity
How did the expansion of European settlements effect the Native Americans? Read Ohio p. 89-92 Settlers cut down trees and cleared land for towns and farms. Many wild animals disappeared. Indians caught diseases from white men. Some drank settlers whiskey and became alcoholics and no longer took care of family..
