Close, but not exactly. "by the Romans" suggests that the Romans split them up and sent them in different directions. The term refers to the Scattering of the Jews to other parts after their homeland was taken from them. They ran away and settled in various other lands as outsiders, giving birth to generations of ostracism, condemnation and hatred. Nobody likes outsiders!

 

heres Wikipedia:

Originally, the term Diaspora (capitalized) was used to refer specifically to the populations of Jews exiled from Judea in 586 BCE by the Babylonians, and Jerusalem in 135 CE by the Roman Empire. This term is used interchangeably to refer to the historical movements of the dispersed ethnic population of Israel, the cultural development of that population, or the population itself. The probable origin of the word is the Septuagint version of Deuteronomy 28:25, "thou shalt be a diaspora (Greek for dispersion) in all kingdoms of the earth". The term has been used in its modern sense since the late twentieth century.
