Arab diaspora is a term that refers to descendants of theArabemigrants who, voluntarily or as forcibly, migrated from theirnative lands to non-Arab countries, primarily in theAmericas,Europe,Southeast Asia, andWest Africa.

Immigrants from Arab countries, such asLebanon,Syria and thePalestinian territories, also form significant diasporas in other Arab states.

Overview

[edit]

Arab expatriates contribute to the circulation of financial and human capital in the region and thus significantly promote regional development. In 2009 Arab countries received a total of US$35.1 billion inremittance in-flows and remittances sent toJordan,Egypt andLebanon from other Arab countries are 40 to 190 per cent higher than trade revenues between these and other Arab countries.[52] Large numbers of Arabs migrated toWest Africa, particularlyCôte d'Ivoire,[53]Senegal,[54]Sierra Leone,Liberia, andNigeria.[55] Since the end of the civil war in 2002,Lebanese traders have become re-established in Sierra Leone.[citation needed]

According toSaudi Aramco World, the largest concentration of Arabs outside theArab World is inBrazil, which has 9 millionBrazilians of Arab ancestry.[56] Of these 9 million Arabs, 6 million are ofLebanese ancestry,[57][58][59] making Brazil's population of Lebanese equivalent to that ofLebanon itself. However, these figures are contradicted by theBrazilian Institute of Geography and Statistics (IBGE), which is the agency responsible for official collection of statistical information in Brazil. According to the 2010 Brazilian census conducted by IBGE, there were only 12,336 Lebanese nationals living in Brazil and other Arab nationalities were so small that they were not even listed.[60] The Brazilian census does not ask about ancestry or family origin. There is a question aboutnationality and, according to the Brazilian law, any person born in Brazil is a Brazilian national by birth and right for any purpose, nationally or internationally - not an Arab.[61][62] The last Brazilian census to ask about family origin was conducted in 1940. At that time, 107,074 Brazilians said they had a Syrian, Lebanese, Palestinian, Iraqi or Arab father. Native Arabs were 46,105 and naturalized Brazilians were 5,447. In 1940, Brazil had 41,169,321 inhabitants, hence Arabs and their children were 0.38% of Brazil's population in 1940.[63]

Colombia,[64]Argentina,Venezuela,Mexico andChile.Palestinians cluster inChile andCentral America, particularlyEl Salvador, andHonduras.[65] ThePalestinian community in Chile[66][67] is the fourth largest in the world after those in Israel, Lebanon, and Jordan.Arab Haitians (a large number of whom live in the capital) are more often than not, concentrated in financial areas where the majority of them establish businesses. In theUnited States, there are around 3.5 million people of Arab ancestry.[68]

In the 2010 Indonesian census, 118,886 people, amounting to 0.05% of the population ofIndonesia, identified themselves as being of Arab ethnicity.[69]

There is also a small community of Yemeni Arabs inHyderabad city ofTelangana state in India who were brought fromHadhramaut region of Yemen to serve as army men during Nizam's rule. They are called theChaush community. There is also presence of a tiny Iraqi refugees/immigrant community in India.
