The scattering of a nation's people (8)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

diaspora

'the scattering of a nation's people' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)

This is the entire clue.

(Other definitions for diaspora that I've seen before include "people's movement" , "Great dispersion of people, Jews or Irish" , "Dispersion of a people from their homeland" , "Great scattering of people over the world, Jews or Irish" , "The scattering of a nation's people" .)

I've seen this clue in The Irish Times.
