Help ! :) Instead of prospering as they expected, immigrants to the United States in the late 19th century most often lived:

A. in squatter villages on the outskirts of cities.

B. in isolated camps run by the government.

C. on farms located on undesirable land.

D. in the poorest
neighborhoods of major cities.

D. in the poorest  neighborhoods of major cities.

Explanation:

Immigrants moved to the United States in large numbers during the 1800s and early 1900s in order to take advantage of the "American dream" that they had heard so much about.

When they reached the shores of America however, what they found was that you need to work really really hard if you came with nothing or little.

When it came to matters of accommodation, they found that the only places they could afford were in the poorest neighborhoods in the city and so they moved in and made these places their own.

an empire is a sovereign state functioning as an aggregate of nations or people that are ruled over by an emperor or another kind of monarch. the territory and population of an empire is commonly of greater extent than the one of a kingdom.[1]

an empire can be made solely of contiguous territories, such as the austro-hungarian empire or the russian empire, or of territories far remote from the homeland, such as a colonial empire. aside from the more formal usage, the word empire can also refer colloquially to a large-scale business enterprise (e.g. a transnational corporation), a political organisation controlled by a single individual (a political boss), or a group (political bosses).[2] the word empire is associated with such other words as imperialism, colonialism, and globalization. empire is often used to describe a displeasure to overpowering situations.[3]
