Alright, let's make this super simple. Imagine you're playing with building blocks, and your room is Syria. Now, there are a whole bunch of blocks in one corner of the room. But then, something happens - maybe a big brother or sister comes in and starts messing with your corner, and your blocks just can't stay there anymore. It becomes too dangerous for them.
So, your blocks need a new place to stay where they can be safe and sound. They decide to move, but they don’t all move to the same place.
1. First, let's talk about the blocks that left the room entirely because they needed a safe space. Imagine almost a million - that's like counting to a thousand, a thousand times! - of your blocks decided to go to your friend's house next door. This friend is like a neighboring country for your blocks. So, these blocks are similar to the Syrians who had to leave their country because of the crisis and went to different places for safety.
2. Next, think about another big group of your blocks, a little more than half a million. This time, imagine 500,000 plus some more - that’s half of what the first group was, plus a little extra - decided to go to your sibling’s room instead. It's not as far as your friend's house, but it's still outside your room. This represents the refugees who have migrated to nearby countries, but not as many as the first group.
3. Now, some of your blocks don't want to leave your room, or can’t. They just move to other parts of the room away from the chaotic corner. Imagine a big bunch, like, let's say X million (I don't have the exact number, but it’s a lot!) of blocks moved to different spots within your room. This represents the people who moved to other parts within Syria, trying to find a safer place but still staying in their country.
So, if you added all the blocks that went to your friend's house, your sibling's room, and different parts of your room together, you get a really big number - let’s call it Y million. This is how many people had to move because of the problems in Syria, either within the country or to the neighboring places.
This whole situation is like your blocks looking for a safer space because they couldn’t be in their favorite corner anymore. And just like you'd want your blocks to be safe and happy, we hope all the people who had to move find safety and peace.
