Irish immigrants

Irish immigrants are people who moved from Ireland to other countries, primarily during the 19th and early 20th centuries, seeking better economic opportunities and escaping hardships like famine and political unrest. Their arrival significantly influenced the culture, labor force, and demographics of countries such as the United States, Canada, and Australia. Irish immigrants often took on manual labor jobs and faced discrimination, but they also contributed richly to their new communities through traditions, religion, and social networks. Their migration reflects a broader history of global movement driven by the pursuit of safety, stability, and prosperity.
