๐ฎ๐ฑ Genetic Landscape of Israel
Israel's genetic landscape is extraordinary โ Ashkenazi, Sephardic, Mizrahi, Ethiopian, Russian, and Arab Israeli populations create one of the world's most genetically diverse small nations. Ashkenazi Jews show European admixture over a Levantine foundation, while Mizrahi Jews retain more Middle Eastern markers. Ethiopian Jews (Beta Israel) carry distinct East African genetics. This diversity means national averages hide dramatic variation, and trait rarity depends heavily on community background.
