Blog Entry #7

Can migrations have a positive impact on the people and/or land receiving the immigrants?

Migrations can have a positive impact on the people and land receiving the immigrants because new ideas and trade can be spread throughout the new area. The increase of population as well is a positive effect because with the growth of lands, comes the growth of trade routes. Language, religion, ideas and arts were transferred and exchanged with the newcoming of the immigrants. The cities and manufacturing companies grew as well. I think that the main positive impact was the spread of new ideas and religion/customs because with these changes, more inventions and technilogical advances were created. The different ideas of the immigrants and the inhabitants of the land weaved together to create new ideas. These new ideas are what helped to create the world and make it the way it is today.
