As the united states entered world war i what was significant about the fact that the two largest immigrant groups in the united states were german americans and irish americans? (2 points) members of both groups had negative feelings toward the allies and favored american neutrality. members of both groups registered for the military in record numbers, despite their ties to their homelands. members of both groups were prohibited from serving in the military because of their questionable loyalties. members of both groups were asked to join the american protective league to spy on their friends and neighbors.

The correct answer is the first one: Members of both groups had negative feelings toward the Allies and favored American neutrality.

Both, the Irish Americans and the German Americans had negative feelings toward the Allies, mainly the British. For the Irish Americans, this is due to the fact that at that time Ireland was struggling for its independence from the United Kingdom, therefore the Irish community in the United States would never have supported the Allies. For the German Americans, to some degree, they had strong sympathy for Imperial Germany. For these reasons, both communities favored American neutrality during WWI and, in fact, they were opposed to the Treaty of Versailles after the war, since in their eyes it was too favorable to the British side.

explanation:

diaspora, (greek: dispersion)hebrew galut (exile), the dispersion of jews among the gentiles after the babylonian exile; or the aggregate of jews or jewish communities scattered “in exile” outside palestine or present-day israel. although the term refers to the physical dispersal of jews throughout the world, it also carries religious, philosophical, political, and eschatological connotations, inasmuch as the jews perceive a special relationship between the land of israel and themselves. interpretations of this relationship range from the messianic hope of traditional judaism for the eventual “ingathering of the exiles” to the view of reform judaism that the dispersal of the jews was providentially arranged by god to foster pure monotheism throughout the world.

the first significant jewish diaspora was the result of the babylonian exile (q.v.) of 586 bc. after the babylonians conquered the kingdom of judah, part of the jewish population was deported into slavery. although cyrus the great, the persian conqueror of babylonia, permitted the jews to return to their homeland in 538 bc, part of the jewish community voluntarily remained behind.

the largest, most significant, and culturally most creative jewish diaspora in early jewish history flourished in alexandria, where, in the 1st century bc, 40 percent of the population was jewish. around the 1st century ad, an estimated 5,000,000 jews lived outside palestine, about four-fifths of them within the roman empire, but they looked to palestine as the centre of their religious and cultural life. diaspora jews thus far outnumbered the jews in palestine even before the destruction of jerusalem in ad 70. thereafter, the chief centres of judaism shifted from country to country (e.g., babylonia, persia, spain, france, germany, poland, russia, and the united states), and jewish communities gradually adopted distinctive languages, rituals, and cultures, some submerging themselves in non-jewish environments more completely than others. while some lived in peace, others became victims of violent anti-semitism.
