Description
Description
The 19th century brings economic and political upheaval. Jews are torn between loyalty to their people and to the emerging nations of Europe. In Tsarist Russia, they are coerced to adapt to "modern" ways, but are met with resentment. Pogroms in the 1880s help drive millions to America. Anti-Semitism in Western Europe encourages many to turn to Zionism with its dream of a Jewish nation. When World War I brings the old order to a violent and decisive end, many Jews are already in the forefront of modern culture.
