Abstract

The article shows the impact of mass migration from Russia to Turkey on the ethnic and demographic situation in the Danube Vilayet of the Ottoman Empire in 1860s. The author is inclined to see the migratory flow from Russia as symmetrical to the one that proceeded from Ottoman Empire to the Southern Russian territories.
