A growing religion mainly in the Benwall province. Large amounts of Jewish refugees traveled from Perabia to Carena after Israel was conquered by Perabia in 2015. Under Perabian rule, the Jews could be tortured and killed due to the far right Islamic rule, which was overthrown 4 years later.

There are a few adherents to Judaism in the Empire, though they are from the nation of Lachish and are not at all similar to modern "Jews". Notably it is the only legal Abrahamic Religion welcome in the Empire.

It's a tiny minority and is treated just the same as every other religion in Czervenika; freedom of worship is allowed in private homes and in temples, but no public preaching(not that Jews preach anyway...)

Almost unheard of, but entirely welcome.

I'm referring to serious belief in the existence of Yahweh. There are cultural Jews, but they are atheists and tend to have a great deal of respect for Ayn Rand.

I suppose there's quite a few Jews among our human subjects, but as far as we Sidhae are concerned, there are and can be no Jewish Sidhae, just as there cannot be Christian, Muslim, Buddhist, or any other kind of Sidhae than just plain Sidhae. You either are a Sidh or you are not.

In other words, Judaism is an obosolete and un-Sidh superstition just like the rest of them, and no Sidh is allowed, or would ever consider, taking such nonsense seriously.
Freedom doesn't mean being able to do as one please, but rather not to do as one doesn't please.

A fool sees religion as the truth. A smart man sees religion as a lie. A ruler sees religion as a useful tool.

It has a small minority here, of which some are classified as native Jews: the Nihim who used to be the main population and religion until they began converting to Christianity, of which the last got raided by the Vikings in 1000s, except a single community that still exists in the Pine Cordillera.

The other are of course, foreign-born or foreign-descended Jews which is self-explanatory.

It is not a prohibited religion so there may be several million Jews in Novus Niciae.
Judging by building permits they have built quite a few synagogues, but we do not collect data on the religion of individual citizens so exact religious data is a little hard to come by. (also looking at the names on the permits will be useless since corporations apply for permits for churches. This is because all churches are required to register as corporations for tax purposes.)

A really small, unnoticed minority.
About 560,000 Jews are currently living within Austerene, most of them are secular.
They are living mostly in the major cities, and have professions like doctors, bankers, businessman and real estate owner.
They are respected and treated the same as all religions and ethnic groups in Austerene.
Unfortunately, Antisemitism is alive and kicking in Austerene, and Nazi sympathizers are organizing marches and parade, spreading antisemitic propaganda, with no problem caused by the law. That is because, of excessive civil rights in Austerene.
The hate towards Jews (and other religious and ethnic minorities), is mostly projected from radical right wings groups and unions.

earth is a very long way from lananara. many other populous worlds are closer, and more frequently and commonly interacted with.
thus all of the religious beliefs of earth are curiosities to a small number of speciallists who study such things, and little known by the populas at large.

this is not to imply there aren't strong but inexact parallels to all of them, in as much as beliefs and their diversity exist on all worlds.
and a large number of cameroi believe all these diverse beliefs, that arise independently as life itself, on the diversity of worlds of our galaxy,
are all of origin of the same unseen and unknowable source.

that thing which has many names, among which is god.

we generally avoid speculating as to its nature however, and prefer more simply to be nice to whatever small harmless spirits may happen to share familiar and comfortable places.
truth isn't what i say. isn't what you say. isn't what anybody says. truth is what is there, when no one is saying anything.

A near-negligible minority; in a nation of circa 400 million, there are no less than 100,000 Jews. Most of these Jews live in the Capital District. The religion itself is perfectly legal, of course, and the Federal Republic opens its borders to foreign Jews (and other religious in general) subject to genocide in their home countries by virtue of the Valderama Doctrine.

Judaism is a rare faith in Frenequesta, with only three specially designated synagogues in the nation, one in Neue Bayreuth, one in Fox Dole Altar, and the other in Unirove. About 50,000 people in a nation of 80 million claim to actually practice some form of Judaism, religious and/or culturally, with Reform and Progressive being the most common denominations. Millions more claim Jewish descent, but that is a different matter entirely.

Judaism, like all Abrahamic religions, are strongly protested against. We do not force you to convert, we just make you're life hell if you don't. Unless we deem your religion safe, non-violent, and accepting. You will not be safe, you will be violated, and you will not be accepted.

Edit: My point being there are none.

There are very few religious Jews in our nation — at last count, around 5,000. There is lingering antisemitism in certain areas, but most of our nation views them the same as anyone else.

It should also be noted that the Empire has strict laws regarding the removal of genital tissue, which is only legal if:
  • a doctor deems that it would be actively harmful to the child to not remove/reconfigure the tissue. This includes severe phimosis and certain infections. Patients have the ability to decline if they themselves demonstrate that they know the risks and consequences of doing so. OR
  • the patient has consented to or requested the surgery, and has proven they are aware of the risks and consequences.
This kinda puts a damper on the whole "brit milah" thing. Jews in this country either perform the ritual after 15 years (when the child can legally consent to the procedure) or not at all.

Thre are about 300,000 adherents to Judaism in Geadland (1% of the population) while about 750,000 Geads are of Jewish descent. Antisemitism has been rare in Geadland, though it has existed. Geadland has had two prime ministers of Jewish ethnicity (Teodorus den Hofstad, who was a Christian, and Henrik Abilo, who adhered to Reform Judaism) along with the current Mayor of Bondhaven, Rodgar Kohen.
