Many people move from one country to another. This movement is called migration. When people leave their home country, they often go to find a better life. These people can create a diaspora. A diaspora is a community of people from the same country living in a different country. For example, many people from Syria moved to other countries because of the war. They have created strong communities in places like Turkey and Germany. In these countries, they share their culture, food, and traditions. They help each other and keep their traditions alive. Diasporas can make countries more diverse and interesting. They connect people and create new friendships across the world.
