Answer:

Germany and Ireland

Step-by-step explanation:

The Potato Famine caused extreme poverty and mass death in Ireland, so many Irish people moved to the US for a better life. People escaped Germany in the late 1800s due to a storm of religious persecution, political oppression, and extreme poverty
