Answer 1

The statement "Gold was discovered in the state of California" is NOT a reason Europeans immigrated to the U.S. during the latter half of the 1800s. The Gold Rush in California primarily occurred during the mid-19th century, attracting people from various parts of the world, not just Europe. Religious persecution and the desire for freedom from rules and regulations were more general and common factors driving European immigration during that period.
