A difference between "new immigration" and "old immigration" is that "new immigration" included immigrants from southern and eastern Europe (A).

The terms "new" and "old immigration" refer to two major different immigration waves in the history of the United States.

The so-called "old immigrants" arrived in the middle of the 19th century, mostly from northern and western Europe (Ireland, Scotland, Germany...). In a context of industrial revolution, governments were unstable in Europe and many people fleed repression, unemployment, and religious persecution to find better opportunities than their countries could offer.The "new immigrants" arrived a generation later in the early 20th century, mostly from southern and eastern Europe (Greece, Italy, Poland...). They fled their countries of origin because of their undemocratic regimes and a wave of violent revolutions spreading throughout Europe.
