Nikola Tesla's Imigration

     Nikola Tesla an amazing inventor. But how did he get here?
     Nikola Tesla was born into a Serbian family in 1856 in a village in Smiljan, Croatia. His childhood was harsh for the death of his older brother and a bad relationship with his parents. The thing that kept this off his mind is reading Mark Twain's books. At the age of 12 Nikola was diagnosed with a serious disease.
     In 1884 at the age of 28 Nikola immigrated to America after working in Paris. For less than a year he worked at Thomas Edison's laboratory. Because of low pay Nikola moved on.
     In March 1895 Nikola's laboratory was burned down. Edison kindly provided space for Nikola.
     Later, in May 1895 Nikola, Edison, and Alexander Graham Bell attended the National Electrical Exposition in Philadelphia.
