      So how many #Jews were expelled in 1492 from #Spain? Estimates are between 40K to 160K, when in fact most Spanish Jews chose ‘option B’ - conversion to Christianity instead of expulsion. Forced expulsion of Jews from Spain began already in 1391. In the picture - a Jew in Spain.pic.twitter.com/0phtPayWhc

      What makes 1492 special is that this expulsion was an official edict issued by the #Catholic Monarchs of Spain, basically aiming to eliminate any #Jewish presence in Spain. Here’s s copy of the edict of expulsion, signed by Isabella I of Castile and Ferdinand II of Aragon.pic.twitter.com/7pkO2jSxuX

      Where did all the Jews go? Well, many to Portugal which was geographically and culturally close. But...in 1497 the expulsion edict came into effect over there too. Bad luck. Some fled to France, Belgium and Holland. Finally, most fled east - to the young n rising Ottoman Empire.pic.twitter.com/gowpFQaqxq

      In 1516, the #Ottomans concurred the #HolyLand from the Mamluks, and many of the ex-Spanish #Jews moved to their ancestral ancient home land, joining the already existing Jewish communities there.pic.twitter.com/JyVMeSgOuw

      The Expelled Spanish Jews used to be mostly urban, so they preferred cities. Most settled in the “4 holy cities” - Jerusalem, Hebron, Safed and Tiberias. Many also, believe it or not - in #Gaza. In Jerusalem, the western wall was declared by sultan Süleyman as a holy Jewish site.pic.twitter.com/vePQzWk9pY

      In the years after 1492, some 200K #Jews were forced out of Spain. But many also stayed and became “New Christians”. For centuries, Spain was #judenrein until the expulsion edict was officially cancelled in 1869. Today there are around 13,000 Jews living in Spain.pic.twitter.com/MsDEu4W4Y5

      Thanks to all new followers who helped get the #Jewish People out of the Middle Ages. We’ve seen that they don’t call them ‘dark ages’ for no reason. Stay tuned as the history of the Jews keeps unfolding throughout modern times..... https://twitter.com/israelmfa/status/1077820347683127298?s=21 …pic.twitter.com/5KqfAHuFNY
