Babylon followed the Assyrian governance technique of exchanging upper classes between areas so that an area would have a government unsympathetic to them, and so prevent uprisings. The upper classes of Judea and Benjamin were sent to Babylon and a new foreign aristocracy sent in to control Judea. The Assyrians had already done this to the 10 northern tribes of Israel over a hundred years earlier.
Diaspora literature refers to literary works that are created by authors who belong to a cultural or ethnic community that has been dispersed or scattered around the world, usually due to historical events, colonization, or forced migration. These works often explore themes of displacement, identity, and the experience of living between different cultures.
Jews were forced out by armed invaders. The Babylonians invaded, sacked Jerusalem, and forced Jews into exile. Some stayed in Babylon while others returned from exile. The Roman empire sacked Jerusalem and forced Jews into exile and slavery, and did not allow Jews to return to Jerusalem until the Islamic conquest, when some returned. The Crusaders slaughtered essentially all of the Jews of Jerusalem, driving many Jewish refugees from the Crusader kingdoms. After the Crusaders were defeated, some Jews returned.
Zedekiah was punished by the heathen Babylonians by being forced to witness the killing of his own children, having his eyes put out, and being chained and taken captive to Babylon.

The spread of Judaism may be called spacial distribution or diaspora. The spacial distribution of Jews differs from that of any other ethnic religion. This is because Judaism is practiced in many countries, not just its place of origin. But the spread of Judaism might be caused by diaspora, the action of when the Romans forced Jews to disperse throughout the world. The Romans had forced the diaspora after demolishing an attempt by the Jews to rebel against Roman rule.
