Migration refers to the displacement or movement of the human population from one zone to another due to job opportunities, war, conflict, famine, etc. In history, most countries especially those in Europe and the U.S experienced massive migrations during the 19th and 20th century as due to industrialization and rapid development in cities many people moved from rural areas to urban ones as in them there were multiple job opportunities and also, they could find people with their same origin and culture.
