Push factors are reasons that compel people to leave their home country, such as political persecution, economic hardship, natural disasters, or war. One example from Lesson 1 is the Irish Potato Famine in the 1840s, which led to mass emigration from Ireland due to famine and poverty.
Pull factors are reasons that attract people to move to a new country, such as better economic opportunities, political stability, higher living standards, or religious freedom. One example from Lesson 1 is the California Gold Rush in the mid-19th century, which attracted immigrants from around the world seeking wealth and a better life in America.
