Jewish communities in the diaspora

Jewish communities in the diaspora refer to Jewish populations living outside Israel. Historically, Jews migrated and settled around the world, establishing distinct communities in Europe, the Middle East, North Africa, Asia, and the Americas. These communities maintain cultural, religious, and social ties to their heritage while adapting to local environments. Despite geographical dispersal, they often share practices like observing Jewish holidays and traditions, and establish communal institutions such as synagogues and schools. The diaspora has shaped diverse Jewish experiences and identities, fostering resilience, cultural preservation, and connections across global Jewish populations.
