Muhacir , Macırlar or Muhajir is a name for about 10 million Muslims from the European part of the Ottoman Empire (especially Turks , Albanians , Circassians , Crimean Tatars and Pomaks ) who immigrated to Anatolia from the late 18th to the 20th centuries .

Five to seven million Muslim migrants immigrated to Ottoman Anatolia from the Balkans and Caucasus between 1783 and 1914 . The reason for this was that in the late 18th and early 20th centuries the Ottomans lost state territory as a result of the Balkan War and World War I , and the Muhacirs saw the Ottoman Empire and its successor state, Turkey, as a protective fatherland. Many emigrants fled to Anatolia as a result of the persecution of Muslims. Between 1923 and 1938, land was distributed to around 217,000 families from Muhaciren in Turkey.
