Twenty-four people are displaced from their homes every minute, according to the United Nations. A report by the UN Refugee Agency said 65.3 million people became or remained displaced from their homes in 2015, setting a new post-World War II record. That is more people than the populations of the United Kingdom, France or Italy. The report said that, "If those 65.3 million persons were a nation, they would make up the 21st largest in the world." The report was released on Monday, which was World Refugee Day. The report listed three major reasons for the increase in displaced people. Number one: Conflicts last longer. The conflicts in Somalia and Afghanistan are now in their third and fourth decades. Number two: Many refugees come from Syria, where a civil war is now in its fifth year. Conflicts are also continuing in South Sudan, Yemen, Burundi, Ukraine, and Central African Republic. Number three: It is harder to find homes for refugees, partly because of political opposition.
