Evacuees in World War II primarily left their homes to escape the dangers of bombings and military conflicts, particularly during the Blitz when German forces targeted British cities. The British government organized mass evacuations, especially of children, to safeguard them from the immediate threats of warfare. Many families were separated, as parents sent their children to rural areas deemed safer, while adults often stayed behind to support the war effort or manage their homes. This evacuation aimed to protect the most vulnerable and maintain morale on the home front.

The evacuees usually escaped from the large cities to the countryside and stayed their for the remainder of the war, and then they were re-united with the rest of their family.
It is difficult to provide an exact number of evacuees who survived World War II, as many countries had different evacuation programs and records. For example, the British evacuation of children during the war, known as Operation Pied Piper, saw around 3.5 million people evacuated, with the vast majority surviving the conflict. Overall, millions of evacuees from various nations likely survived, but comprehensive statistics are not readily available due to the chaotic nature of the war and subsequent record-keeping.
The children, widows, women with need, disabled people and the elderly who were sent to the countryside during the blitz bombing were called evacuees of the evacuation.LaxGirl18:People that must leave there home country do to war and must move to another place are also referred to as refugees.
Neutral countries such as spain and norway (not sure it might be sweden or both) were often targets for refugees because there was no fighting going on there.
