But the Jewish Diaspora ("diaspora" ="dispersion, scattering") had begun long before the Romans had even dreamed of Judaea. When the Assyrians conquered Israel in 722, the Hebrew inhabitants were scattered all over the Middle East; these early victims of the dispersion disappeared utterly from the pages of history

Small and Medium Enterprises (SMEs) are key to the growth of African economies, but they are often plagued by challenges among them lack of adequate funding to startup or grow their businesses.
