The term is used in particular to refer to the aspects of migration of German speakers from Central Europe to different countries around the world.

For instance, the Alsatians and Hessians were often simply called "Germans" once they set foot in their new homelands.

The law came into effect on 1 January 1993, the date of the dissolution of Czechoslovakia, and has been amended in 1993, 1995, 1996, 1999, 2002, 2003, and 2005.
