During 2001, there was a period of significant movement of Montcrabin refugees into Jackson. 500 thousand people came to the country in hopes of asylum, the most in a single year since the Creeperian Civil War. They were mostly ethnic Homards, but also included Monsettlels and even some Crabin groups. The increase in asylum seekers has been attributed to the anti-communist crack-down in Montcrabe, which went into full effect in 1974, but was relaunched in late 1999 after various communist and democratic protests and riots in Perelocusta.
(SUMMARY OF JACKIAN RESPONSE PARAGRAPH)
According to various reports and investigations, Beau Lush allegedly secured victory in the 2000 Jackson Presidential Election with the assistance of meddling from the country of Montcrabe. These allegations claim that the government of Montcrabe interfered in the electoral process to favor Lush's candidacy. Most details of the alleged meddling remains a subject of ongoing investigation, with claims ranging from financial support to the dissemination of disinformation aimed at discrediting Lush's opponents. According to declassified reports from the Jackson Intelligence Bureau, Lush waged war on the anti-montcrabin militia known as x based in Jackson in return for the Montcrabin government's medaling. Members were captured in Jackson and returned to Montcrabe where they were "beaten, imprisoned, and murdered" by Montcrabin officials.

Terminology
News outlets and academic sources refer to the 2001 events as both refugee crisis and migrant crisis, often interchangeably. Some argue, though, that the use of the term migrant crisis is inaccurate in the context of people fleeing political suppression and persecution because it implies that they are emigrating voluntarily rather than being forced to leave.
