At that time in order to look forward new hunting or escape from enemies, the tribes of Siberia crosd from Asia on the land bridge which connects Siberia and Alaska to the North America Continent. Before the discovery of the New World, American Indians had already inhabited there for thousands of years. They lived on land by hunting, gathering, fishing, and farming.
The cond population migration movement to Americans started from the European colonial expansion of early 16th century. In 17th century, English established a permanent resident in North America, which had an influence on their culture and enriched their life. During this time, the immigrants came not only from England but also Germany, Switzerland, France and other countries. The people combined together and created the American culture which was a blending of European cultures under new circumstances.

3 The innovation of American emigration culture
3.1 Freedom and Independence
中国寓言
The reason why the early ttlers came to America was that escape from their religious percution and social environment. Most of them were protestant from England. In England, they did not accept the doctrine of Church of Scotland, which brought them inconvenience and danger. Therefore, they pursued freedom and independence not only reflected in religion but also in economy and social life. After they moved across the ocean to America with all kinds of difficulties, the thoughts that pursuit individual rights and freedom was more firm and strong. For one thing, they needed a powerful government to maintain peace order and ensure private properties. For another thing, they pursued freedom and independence which had become their principle and belief to the maximum possible. Their dream was realized along with the publication of the Declaration of Independence and the success of war of Independence. Personal freedom was the most basic and the most important values.
