The 20th century created some of the worlds worse refugee challenges. Millions of people were displaced by war and other situations: Two Examples: after WW2, with the redrawing of many of Europe's borders, around 14 million ethnic Germans had to move and were eventually absorbed into Germany. Tens of thousands from other European country's found new host nations either in the USA, Canada or elsewhere in the world or made a life wherever they found themselves. The UK absorbed 10's of thousands mostly Hindu and Sikh of Uganda's Asians in the mid '70 when they were forced to flee for their lives. They have since contributed £billions of pounds to the UK economy and enriched British society.
