Respuesta :

Answer:

If it isn't multiple choice, then option four. German-Americans in the midwest faced a huge reduction of any Germanized elements due to fear of persecution. The culture disappeared more and more, and the German Americans lost their identities.

Explanation:

1. German Americans being moved to internment camps was a WW2 thing along with Japanese-Americans and Italian Americans,

2. I haven't heard that one be much of a talking point, but it is also a possibility.

3. German-Americans came to the new world for various reasons and did not want to move back to Germany. Many of them disliked the Prussian domination of the country and the dominance of Protestantism. There has also been little discussion of such a thing, and moreso the disappearance of the German culture in the midwest rather than fleeing to Germany. Germany was also blockaded and was running low on resources. I highly doubt that would have been something people wanted to come back to.
