How did the Jewish Diaspora begin and why was it difficult for followers of Judaism?

∙ 12y ago
The Jewish diaspora (exile) began twice: when Nebuchadnezzar destroyed the First Temple and exiled the people to Babylon; and several centuries later, when Titus destroyed the Second Temple, and most of the population of Judea gradually went into exile because of the untenable conditions in Judea under the Romans.
The Diaspora was difficult because it is not as easy to survive and to maintain one's Jewish identity when the Jews are spread thinly amongst other peoples.

Today it's hard to properly trace most of the tribes. The tribe of Judah, today the majority of the Jewish people, was one of the last to leave Israel in the Exile to Mesopotamia.Answer BFollowers of Judaism are called "followers of Judaism".
