Judaism is a religion. Jews can live in, or come from, just about any country. Today, the largest Jewish communities are in America and Israel, with smaller numbers of Jews in almost every country in the world.

Do Jews confuse religion, ethnicity and nationality?

It's not clear that "Jews confuse" these notions, but it is clear that Judaism is generally viewed, both by Jews and by outsiders who study such things, as a combination of religion, nationality and culture. It is a religion, with a specific view of God, creation, revelation and redemption. It is a nationality, in the older sense of nationality that didn't require that nations have territorial boundaries, and it is a culture, with its own literature, music, language and food ways. Jews, like many other religions and nationalities and cultures, have long allowed conversion, or in national terms, adoption or naturalization of outsiders.

Why is Jewish a nationality as opposed to a religion in russia?

In Russia, Jewish identity is often viewed as a nationality due to historical factors, including the long-standing presence of Jewish communities and the influence of the Soviet regime, which categorized Jews as a distinct ethnic group. This perspective emphasizes cultural, linguistic, and historical ties rather than solely religious beliefs. Additionally, the 1939 Soviet census recognized Jews as a nationality, further solidifying this classification. Consequently, many Jews in Russia identify with their ethnic heritage while also practicing their religion.


What would you call Judaism, a nation or a religion?

Judaism is the religion of the Jews. The Jews can be considered a nation in the old sense of the word, where nation was not necessarily connected to national territory or government. Nations in this sense can share a national culture, traditions, languages and mythology. Nations in this sense can have laws or traditions governing who is a member of that nationality and how one joins that nationality.
