How many converted until 1492? Roman Catholics would say that 800´000 between 711AD and 1492AD. During 781 years. Jews would say that 50´000 (around 1492AD). The answer of a recent genetic study suggests that around 20% of the current population of Spain has Jewish Ethnicity. That means 9,2 Million Spaniards, making Spain the country with the largest population of Christians with Jewish Ethnicity. The footprints of Judaism have practically disappeared between those Christians with Jewish Ethnicity, but not completely. Many Jewish Christians do have philosemitism and do like a lot Israel and the Torah. That could be one of the reasons why Spaniards make so many trips to Israel each year.
