Judaism

Judaism is one of the oldest monotheistic religions in the world. It is made up of religious, cultural and legal traditions that makes up Jewish life. Also, it has a strong ethnoreligious basis, with the Jews having a strong identity of their own with only slight deviations in orthodoxy between groups & off-shoots. Though they have the odd convert they don't set out to convert others to their beliefs. Their holy book, the Torah, has been around at least in written form for centuries, since at least 500 BC. It is used as a basis for the Christian and Muslin religions. They refer to God as YHWH.
The Jewish religion has been driven from their own homeland of Israel by the Romans a few centuries ago, and are now split through the Middle East, north Africa and continental Europe.
