Today we're going to be looking at the people of the Holy Land (Israel & Palestine) and the history and demographics of the region which includes dozens of unique people groups divided by language, religion, ethnicity/ancestry and other cultural groupings giving an extremely diverse and complex makeup in the region that is unique from anywhere else on Earth and is of extreme significance to billions of people around the world due to the religious significance to followers of Abrahamic faiths. Starting with the ancient Semites, Canaanites, Israelites and many other groups that have come from near and far to add their own distinct cultural impact in the region, today we'll be looking at the Jewish, Islamic, Christian and other unique groups in an around the Holy Land, dispel some widely held myths regarding these groups and their history and how their demographic share of the population in their home nation and abroad has changed due to the tragic and somewhat ironic history that has troubled this region for thousands of years. No offense or bias is intended for any groups in the region. This video is the longest I have ever put out since there is simply so much to cover without missing important details. Let me know what you think of these longer videos that combine history with modern demographics. Thanks for watching!
