This book does not provide reliable figures for Egypt and Libya, but we may expect that migration flows to these countries are comparable to those for Morocco and Tunisia. For Algeria, note that Willcox and Ferenczi mention 4,588,184 travellers from Europe entering this colony between 1893 and 1924, whereas net migration over the same period amounted to just 29,583.
