Scattering of Israel
After the destruction of the Second Temple in AD 70 and the Bar Kokhba revolt in AD 135, the Jewish people were expelled from Judea and dispersed across the Roman Empire and beyond. They remained a distinct people without a homeland for roughly 1,800 years, surviving pogroms, expulsions, and the Holocaust.
