Refugee Crisis

More than four million refugees of the Syrian Civil War have left the country during the course of the war. Most of them fled to neighboring Turkey, Lebanon, Jordan, and Iraq, while thousands also ended up in more distant countries of the Caucasus, the Persian Gulf, North Africa and Europe. As of February 2015, Turkey has become the world's biggest refugee hosting country with 2.1 million Syrian refugees and had spent more than US$6 billion on direct assistance to refugees.

The refugee crisis began in 2011, when thousands of Syrian citizens fled across the border to neighboring Turkey and Lebanon. By early July 2011, 15,000 Syrian citizens had taken shelter in tent cities, set up in the Yayladagi, Reyhanli and Altinözü districts of Hatay Province, near Turkey's border with Syria. By the end of that month, 5,000 of the refugees had returned to Syria. However, by late June 2011, the number of Syrian refugees in Lebanon had reached around 10,000 people. By mid-July 2011, the first Syrian refugees found sanctuary in Jordan, with their numbers reaching 1,500 by December.

On September 21 the European Union approved a plan committing itself to taking in 120,000 refugees, after putting a lot of trouble for those who wanted to stay on these countries. Even after this there are much more refugees who need help.

2016 update

This update brings what some people have asked, changes in how the policies cited above interact with social groups. As not everyone was in agreement, I decided to make an alternate version of this mod. This new version is downloaded with the normal mod, just not activated. You can learn how to activate the alternate version in the discussion.

This update also rebalances the way the game was handling the inmigration before, making it work properly.
