Immigration timeline

  • Home in Italy

    Dante Lambo Devito is living in Italy with harsh poverty, not much land, over population, and no work. People he knows are deciding to move to America. Dante considers it an option in his future
  • Push Pull factors

    Italy has bad poverty, gang violence, no jobs, and no land. These are push factors in Dante's life. The pull factors are the west in America has lots of free land, it has lots of jobs to be filled, its a fresh start, not very populated, lots of family live there, no religeous seperation, and lots of family lives there.
  • Moving

    Living on steerage is very hard, lots of sicknesses going around,I get little food, I get very homesick. My brother go a sickness i have never heard before that makes you get lots of red bumps on your body. They call it chicken pox.
  • Reasons to Live in West/ group

    Now that i have settled in the west along with the loggers i work with, i have noticed that the west is a lot nicer than the east because there aren't as many people in the west, there's people teaching us Christianity, there is lots of free land, and it is not hard to get a paying job.
  • In America

    In America I joined a group of loggers for my first job ever. I did not have any money to start with. My stash of gold got taken from me on the boat to come here. Also My brother Ezio is in critical condition due to illness. Since i have started my Job i was able to afford a home on big free property. THere is lots of more land in the west than east because the east has lots of people living in it.
  • Act

    Lots of Chinese people illegally moved into America claiming they were born in California. Lots of the chinese took our jobs so we had to move and find more jobs.
