APH: History's Best Friends

German immigration in the United States began in the 17th Century and continued into the late 19th Century at a rate exceeding that of any other country.

At the beginning of 18th Century, economic problems in Germany brought a new wave of immigrants. Nearly one million German immigrants entered the United States in the 1850s; this included thousands of refugees from the 1848 revolutions in Europe.

This phenomenon of "chain migration" strengthened the already existing German regions in the United States (they are most numerous in California, followed by Pennsylvania, Ohio, Illinois, and Texas).

German-American relations were more focused on labor movement than in government. Labor union membership enabled German immigrants to improve working conditions and to integrate in American society as a whole.

Oh gawd, WHY?!! Why must you two look so frickin' adorable together?!


Okay, I need to stop researching about German-American relations or else it'll kill me!

On second thought, maybe it doesn't sound that bad..
