Syrian diaspora refers to Syrian migrants and their descendants who, whether by choice or coercion, emigrated from Syria and now reside in other countries as either immigrants or refugees of the Syrian Civil War.
The Syrians living outside of Syria are estimated to be from 8 to possibly around 15 million. Under the current nationality law, diaspora Syrians do not have an automatic right of return to Syria. Due to varying degrees of assimilation, most diaspora Syrians have not passed on the language to their children (either Arabic, Kurdish, Armenian or Adyghe), while some still maintaining a Syrian ethnic identity.
