Abstract
When viewing the history of immigrants from Germany to USA in the evidence of reports presented by US census. I follow a certain hierarchy by defining a chart of time line indicating the amount of immigrants entering USA from Germany. Keeping in consideration the chart I define push and pull factors for every decade. When the push and pull factors are highlighted in detail, I define the current status of the immigrants throughout history, whether they stayed in America or went back to their homeland. In the third phase, I define the immigrants and their common problems. In this phase, I further elaborate whether the German immigrants faced these problems in USA or not? In the fourth phase, I define the impact of culture of both countries in the German - American people and their contribution in the development of USA. In this phase, I further define the culture blend which has taken place in the course of history and the current status of German – American culture. In this phase, the location of German populated areas of USA is also highlighted. In conclusion, I define the current position of immigrants in USA, reasons of the decline of immigrants in USA and the overall impact immigrations has [produced in the lives of German – Americans and American society.
