−	The '''Great Migration''' was a [[ghoul]] migration across the [[wasteland]], that followed after [[Unity]] attacked [[Necropolis]], when most ghouls were forced to leave Necropolis to survive.<ref>[[Fallout Bible 4]]: ''"I am wrong. Most ghouls were forced to leave Necropolis, leading to the Great Migration across the wastes."''</ref>	+	The '''Great Migration''' refers to a mass flight of [[Necropolis]] [[ghoul]]s in the wake of the retaliatory attack by the [[Unity]], following the death of [[Harry]] and his garrison at the hands of the [[Vault Dweller]].<ref>[[Fallout Bible 4]]: ''"I am wrong. Most ghouls were forced to leave Necropolis, leading to the Great Migration across the wastes."''</ref>

−	Though some ghouls left the city before [[Fallout timeline#2162|2162]],<ref>[[Fallout Bible 0]]: ''"Ghouls still have the human need to expand and move on - and in the 80+ years between Fallout 1 and 2, the ghouls spread out from Necropolis in all directions... and some had even left before the events in Fallout 1."''</ref> in early 2162, the Master sent his army to Necropolis, in order to find [[Etymology of pure and prime humans|pure strain]] [[human]]s and [[Vault Dweller|one in particular]].<ref name="VDM" >[[Vault Dweller's memoirs]]: ''"On my way, I took a detour and stopped by Necropolis in order to see some old friends. Unfortunately, that place was now truly the city of the dead. All the ghouls had been slaughtered. Large mutants roamed the streets. I found one survivor who told me that the mutants had attacked shortly after I had left. Before he died, the ghoul told me that the mutants were looking for pure strain humans, and one in particular. The ghoul's description of the mutants' special target fit me perfectly. It was with a heavy heart and a cold burning on my soul that I continued on to Boneyard."''</ref> Ignoring the previous status quo with [[Set]] and [[Zombies (gang)|his ghouls]], the super mutants attacked everyone on sight. Most ghouls fled in all directions, and those who opposed were killed.<ref name="VDM" />	+	Although ghouls have already traveled across the wasteland in limited numbers in the early 22nd century, the Great Migration occurred after 2162, leading to the previously concentrated population spreading out across [[New California]] and joining with other scattered ghoul individuals and small communities.<ref>[[Fallout Bible 0]]: ''"Ghouls still have the human need to expand and move on - and in the 80+ years between Fallout 1 and 2, the ghouls spread out from Necropolis in all directions... and some had even left before the events in Fallout 1."''</ref>

		+	The Migration was triggered by the [[Vault Dweller]]s arrival in the [[Necropolis]]. Spotted by Unity spies, the Vault Dweller killed [[Harry]] and his team in order to secure the water chip, which resulted in the mutants retaliating against the [[Necropolis]]. Possessing the advantage of firepower and mobility, thanks to [[steam truck]]s they created, the Unity easily defeated the ghouls. It was a slaughter: The mutants' standing orders considered them expendable in the pursuit of any pure strain humans in Necropolis, and especially the Vault Dweller.

−	Ghouls founded few towns like [[Gecko (town)|Gecko]], [[Broken Hills]] and [[Dayglow]]. Some group joined NCR to serve in their armed forces, even in the Rangers.<ref>[[Fallout Bible 6]]</ref><ref>[[Ranger station Echo]]</ref>	+	The flight resulted in ghouls scattering across [[New California]]. Major populations settled in [[Dayglow]], [[Gecko (town)|Gecko]], and [[Broken Hills]]. Ironically, the Great Migration allowed ghouls to thrive, with Dayglow eventually admitted into the [[New California Republic]] as a founding state, mutant protection laws passed in the early 23rd century, and ghouls serving in the [[New California Republic Rangers]].<ref>[[Fallout Bible 6]]</ref><ref>[[Ranger station Echo]]</ref>
