It must have been wild to live back in the day when free land was on offer here in America. Imagine coming over from Europe and building a completely new life in this big, beautiful country. :)

This free land was still available in Alaska until the 80's. There still is free land available in a handful of American states.
Of course, 'free' is inaccurate. Small fees had to be paid, and only 40% of applicants successfully completed.
