Home›Rabbis, Kabbalists & Jewish Scholars›NationalityBrowse ByNationalityThis page groups historical figures by nationality, the country or people they are identified with. Wikipedia defines nationality as "the legal status of belonging to a particular nation," though for figures who lived before modern states existed the atlas records the closest historical equivalent. Browsing this way lets a visitor see every notable figure from one country or region gathered together.FactsNationalityConnectionsSourcesComments (0)Reader Challenges (0)FactsDirectoryCategoryWell-attestedHistorical Figures 1NationalityFilter Results14 entriesTraditionAllJudaism (14)EraAll1013 to 1103 (1)1240 to 1291 (1)1240 to 1305 (1)1248 to 1305 (1)135 to 165 (1)1510 to 1569 (1)1520 to 1609 (1)1534 to 1572 (1)1542 to 1620 (1)1646 to 1724 (1)1704 to 1772 (1)1745 to 1812 (1)1772 to 1810 (1)1801 to 1875 (1)1806 to 1888 (2)1902 to 1944 (1)1928 to 2007 (1)1935 to 2023 (1)Place of ActivityAllBelarus (1)Detroit (1)Hamburg (1)Israel (2)Jerusalem (2)Massachusetts (1)Messina (1)Morocco (2)Prague (1)Segovia (1)Spain (2)Syria (1)Tunisia (1)Ukraine (2)GenderAllFemale (5)Male (12)HistoricityAllHistorically attested (14)Veneration StatusAllHistorically Significant but Not Venerated (2)Officially Recognized or Venerated (6)Popularly or Locally Venerated (1)Manner Of DeathAllDied by accident or misadventure (1)Died of natural causes (4)Martyred (1)Member OfAllRabbinical Assembly (1)Revered InAllJudaism (14)Area (sq km)All1,700,000 (1)Dissolution or End YearAll1806 (1)1922 (1)End YearAll1806 (1)1917 (1)1922 (1)Independence or Founding YearAll962 (1)1299 (1)PopulationAll24,000,000 (1)40,000,000 (1)Population at PeakAll29,000,000 (1)161,000,000 (1)Size at Peak in Square KilometresAll1,100,000 (1)5,200,000 (1)22,800,000 (1)Start YearAll962 (1)1065 (1)1162 (1)1179 (1)1299 (1)1479 (1)1569 (1)1721 (1)1776 (1)1949 (1)1962 (1)Show ResultsBrowseCompareSelect all 14AlgeriaNationality1 entryCrown of AragonNationality1 entryGermanyNationality2 entriesHoly Roman EmpireNationality1 entryThe Holy Roman EmpireNationality1 entryKingdom of CastileNationality1 entryOttoman EmpireNationality1 entryThe Ottoman EmpireNationality2 entriesPolish-Lithuanian CommonwealthNationality2 entriesPortugalNationality1 entryRoman EmpireNationality1 entryRussian EmpireNationality2 entriesSpainNationality1 entryUnited StatesNationality2 entriesConnectionsAssociated WithEurope, Continents Well-attested This source names Europe directly: "East, the Hasidic masters of Eastern Europe, and the modern founders of Reform, Positive-Historical and Humanistic Judaism."Source Divinity Atlas Directory Prose, First Edition Category Descriptionstier 1Spain, Countries Well-attested This source names Spain directly: "medieval halakhists and kabbalists of Spain and the Near East, the Hasidic masters of Eastern Europe, and the modern founders of Reform, Positive-Historical and Humanistic Judaism."Source Divinity Atlas Directory Prose, First Edition Category Descriptionstier 1Sources1.
