Judaism has had an incredible effect on European history. Even though there have been a relatively small number of Jews, most of Europe was Christian, a religion based in part on Jewish tradition and belief. As a result, the Jewish Holy Book, The Bible became a central part of European history and identity along with the foundation of many laws.
Judaism also represented a fundamental shift from the Hellenistic Worldview in which a person was valued by what he could do (i.e. fight as a warrior, earn lots of money, etc.) to who he could be (i.e. loving, caring, empathetic, etc.). The idea that a person should attempt to love his neighbor instead of out-compete him is of Jewish origin. This, of course, has been subsumed by Christianity.
