Summary/Abstract: The phenomenon of migration has existed since ancient times, and briefly, it means the displacement of individuals or leaving their living spaces and settelments for other places. The oldest known migration in history is the “Migration of Tribes”, which started from Eurasian steppes and significantly affected the future of civilizations during the centuries. The main reason that pushed people to migrate in the past was the desire to access more fertile soils and more favorable climat. Great geographical discoveries have not only changed the perception of borders and the lands of the countries but also directed the attention of people to untouched lands all over the world. First these intact lands were approached for commercial purposes, then with the development of imperialism, these lands were wanted to be seized for colonialism. In time migration movements have diversified and gained more complex dimensions. Nowadays migration became one of the most important issues of globalized world.
