exile
Banish, primarily to put under ban, to compel by authority to leave a place or country, perhaps with restriction to some other place or country. From a country, a person may be banished, exiled, or expatriated; banished from any country where he may happen to be, but expatriated or exiled only from his own. One may expatriate or exile himself; he is banished by others. Banish is a word of wide import; one may banish disturbing thoughts; care may banish sleep. To expel is to drive out with violence or rudeness, and so often with disgrace.
Synonyms:
ban, banish, discharge, dislodge, dismiss, drive out, eject, evict, expatriate, expel, ostracize, oustPreposition:
Cataline was banished from Rome; John the Apostle was banished to Patmos.

How to use «Exile» in context?
Exile is defined as the act of being separated from one’s country or home and the people with whom one is associated. It often refers to a voluntary departure from one’s homeland, either on religious or political grounds. Exiles can be separated from their families, friends and loved ones, causing great emotional pain. Over the centuries, exile has been used as a means of escape and protection from political and religious persecution. Individuals have fled their homes in order to avoid war or social upheaval, to find a better life or to escape the clutches of tyranny.
