a. continual warfare among the many German states religious.

b. persecution of the Protestant peasants heavy taxation and seizure of property.

c. by the warring factions being faced with economic ruin.

Explanation:

Around 1820 and World War I the greatest wave of German immigration to America occurred. The reasons for the migration were various including the failure of the revolution of 1848 and political refugees seeking refuge in the United States. The religious persecution in the German states especially during the time of world wars led many German's to take route to the U. S. During this time millions of Germans emigrated to the United States.
