Emigration
Emigration is the act and the phenomenon of leaving one's native country or region to
settle in another. It is the same as
immigration but from the perspective of the country of origin. Human movement before the establishment of
state boundaries or within one state, is termed
migration. There are many reasons why people might choose to emigrate. Some are for
political or
economic reasons, or for personal reasons like finding a
spouse while visiting another country and emigrating to be with them. Many older people living in rich nations with cold
climates will choose to move to warmer climates when they retire.
