A '''diaspora''' is the scattering of a people (especially of the [[Jewish]]) away from their homeland.  The first diaspora scattered Jews across the ancient world after they had been held captive in [[Babylon]] in the sixth century BC.  The second diaspora was in AD 132 when the [[Roman]]s destroyed the Jewish state and dispersed the Jewish people to faraway lands.  It was during the Diaspora that the [[Talmud]] was written.  It would take the Jews almost 2,000 years to once again get their nation back.
