Conclusion
Immigration to Europe increased from the 1980s onward, as a result of people from developing countries wanting to escape war, oppresion, natural disasters or poverty. Some EU countries saw a dramatic growth in immigration after World War II until the 1970s. Most European nations today (particularly those of the EU-15) have sizeable immigrant populations, many of non-European origin. In the European Union, as the EU citizenship implies freedom of movement and residence within the EU itself.
