Mediterranean Diaspora

The Mediterranean Diaspora refers to the movement and settlement of people originating from the Mediterranean region—such as Southern Europe, North Africa, and the Middle East—who migrated to other parts of the world over centuries. This migration was driven by factors like trade, economic opportunities, conflict, and colonialism. As they settled in places like the Americas, North Africa, and the Middle East, they brought their cultures, languages, and traditions, shaping diverse societies. The Mediterranean Diaspora highlights how historical shifts caused populations to disperse, influencing global culture, economy, and demographics.
