Pogroms in late 19th century Russia were violent riots aimed primarily at Jewish communities, resulting in widespread violence, looting, and murder. These events were fueled by rising anti-Semitic sentiments and societal tensions, often exacerbated by economic hardships and scapegoating. The pogroms led to significant loss of life and property, prompting many Jews to flee Russia, contributing to the larger Jewish diaspora and influencing the development of Zionism and other Jewish movements.

Pogroms differ from events like the Holocaust in that pogroms were (1) not well-planned or well-coordinated and (2) localized in particular villages or cities.
