A potato famine caused thousands of immigrants of what nationality to travel to the US in the 1840s?

The potato famine caused thousands of Irish immigrants to travel to the United States in the 1840s. 
  • The Cause: A destructive plant fungus (Phytophthora infestans) ruined Ireland's potato crops year after year starting in 1845. 

  • The Impact: Because potatoes were the main food source for millions of poor tenant farmers, the failure of the crop led to mass starvation and disease. 

  • The Exodus: More than one million people died, and over a million (some estimates say nearly two million) Irish citizens fled their homeland, with a vast majority moving to the United States. Many arrived on crowded vessels known as "coffin ships" and settled heavily in northeastern port cities like Boston and New York.
