AB The United States is the nation of nations par excellence. However, the true significance of immigration is frequently underappreciated by the regular American, and, simmilarly, some of the most essential chapters of American immigration history (namely European) are left buried in the past in favor of newer ones. Furthermore, the vast majority of the studies that constitute this subject’s corpus focus on each of these chapters independently, as if they were entirely unrelated or notably different to one another.This study examines the features, stories and consequences of two of the most relevant immigration processes in US history, Irish and Italian, by compiling/consulting numerous sources and constructing one single complete article. It aims at evaluating the data and providing the knowledge to fully understand the magnitude of their legacy, inevitably delivering useful learnings; as well as proving that conjuct analysis is not only plausible, but maybe advisable in some cases.
