"Emigration" means moving out of a country. "Immigration" means moving into a country.
Emigration and immigration sources list the names of people leaving (emigrating) or arriving (immigrating) in the country. These sources may be passenger lists, permissions to emigrate, or records of passports issued. The information in these records may include the emigrants’ names, ages, occupations, destinations, and places of origin or birthplaces. Sometimes they also show family groups.

 ==Immigration into Eritrea==
-*The creation of modern-day Eritrea is a result of the incorporation of independent, distinct kingdoms (for example, Medri Bahri and the Sultanate of Aussa) eventually resulting in the formation of '''Italian Eritrea'''.
-*After the defeat of the Italian colonial army in 1942, Eritrea was administered by the '''British Military Administration''' until 1952. Following the UN General Assembly decision in 1952, Eritrea would govern itself with a local Eritrean parliament, but for foreign affairs and defense, it would enter into a federal status with '''Ethiopia''' for ten years. However, in 1962, the government of Ethiopia formally annexed Eritrea.
-*The Eritrean secessionist movement organized the Eritrean Liberation Front in 1961 and fought the Eritrean War of Independence until Eritrea gained de facto independence in 1991. Eritrea gained de jure independence in 1993 after an independence referendum.
-*There are '''Italian Eritrean (concentrated in Asmara) and Ethiopian Tigrayan communities'''. Neither is generally given citizenship unless through marriage or, more rarely, by having it conferred upon them by the State.
-*Eritrea had about 760,000 inhabitants, including 70,000 '''Italians''', in 1941. Most Italians left after Eritrea became independent from Italy. It is estimated up to 100,000 Eritreans are of Italian descent.<ref>"Eritrea", in Wikipedia, https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Eritrea, accessed August 2021.</ref>
