The Atlantic migration refers to the movement of people, primarily from Europe, to North America across the Atlantic Ocean, particularly during the 19th and early 20th centuries. This migration was driven by various factors, including economic opportunities, political instability, and social unrest in Europe. Millions of immigrants settled in the United States and Canada, significantly shaping the Demographics and cultural landscape of these nations. The Atlantic migration played a crucial role in the development of modern industrial societies in North America.
