A diaspora refers to a group of people who have spread out from their original homeland, often due to historical events like war, persecution, or economic hardship. While they may be geographically dispersed, they often retain a sense of shared identity and cultural heritage from their homeland.
Here are some examples of diasporas:
* Jewish diaspora: Jewish people who were dispersed from their homeland in ancient Israel.
* African diaspora: People of African descent who were forcibly transported to the Americas during the transatlantic slave trade.
* Indian diaspora: People of Indian origin who have migrated to various parts of the world.
