Throughout history many factors have affected undocumented migrants to move to North America, Europe and the more developed countries of Asia. In my opinion, people tend to migrate due to economic gain, war, political refuge, or religious freedom.
In 1620, The Pilgrims arrived at Plymouth Rock, America to seek religious freedom and escape those who persecuted them. The new land allowed them to settle and be the people they wanted, without fear. As the country grew and developed immigrants were able to find food and jobs that were not available in their own country. For example, the potato famine of 1846 in Ireland. Also help the country grow even more the Homestead Act was approved, which granted the United States citizens 160 acres of land
