The
map
above
shows
the
10
countries
in
the
world
with
the
largest
population
of
Jewish
people.

And
surprisingly
the

actually
has
a
higher
total
number
of
Jews
than
Israel
does
(although
much
smaller
share
of
the
population).

From
the

author:

Jewish
people
make
their
homes
in
nearly
every
country
worldwide,
with
a
global

of
15.7
million.

They
represent

0.2%
of
the
global
population.

The
two
countries
with
the
largest
Jewish

were
the
United
States
and
Israel
in
2022,
with
France
being
in
a
distant
third
place.

Geographically,
Jews
are
concentrated
primarily
in
North
America
(44%)
and
the
