Migration categories to and from the Kingdom of Hungary

As a short follow-up to Migration categories: Hungary vs. Kingdom of Hungary vs. Austria-Hungary:

I've now created Kingdom_of_Hungary,_Immigrants (including a subcategory for Holy Roman Empire with subcategories of smaller territories) as well as Kingdom_of_Hungary,_Emigrants. These should be used until 1946 (maybe with a break between 1918 and 1920). The "old" ones Hungary,_Emigrants and Hungary,_Immigrants should only be used for post-kingdom migration.

There is also the outdated category Hungarian_Immigrants_to_America, which doesn't fit to the newer migration categories anymore. Please help moving the profiles in this category to subcategories of either the Kingdom category or the one without the Kingdom (for migration after 1946).

Thanks

Question: in "[X], Immigrants" and "[X], Emigrants", are those _from_ or _to_? I.e., in which category is [X] the destination?
Immigrants come to the country, emigrants leave the country. Does that answer your question?
Ah, no. I know the meanings of the words, but they each still have two ends, and I don't know which end the [X] in the category names indicates. Is "Kingdom of Hungary, Immigrants" meant for all the millions of German and other settlers into the kingdom over the centuries, or for the millions of Hungarians in North America and elsewhere?

(Given the unconscious U.S.-centricism of WT, I can guess the answer, but I suggest that it needs to be made clearer.)
Sorry. "[X], Immigrants" is the destination, "[X], Emigrants" is the source.
J. That is part of the migration tree structure, would have subcategories like ''immigrants from xyz to abc'' and so on.
