Europe adopts quota system on immigrants
Europe slowly adopts immigration quotas amid industrialization and labor surpluses. France, Italy, Spain, and England limit foreign labor to curb unemployment while blaming America for past immigration levels. Poland sends workers to South America, Brazil, and the United States, with Baltic routes competing to move Polish labor abroad. A Toronto note traces the city’s origin to 1749 as a French trading post.
