1. Israelis

   Israelis (Hebrew: יִשְׂרְאֵלִים‎, romanized: Yīśreʾēlīm; Arabic: إسرائيليين, romanized: Isrāʾīliyyīn) are the citizens and nationals of the State of Israel. The country's populace is composed primarily of Jews and Arabs, who respectively account for 75 percent and 20 percent of the national figure; followed by other ethnic and religious minorities, who account for 5 percent.Early Israeli culture was largely defined by communities of the Jewish diaspora who had made aliyah to British Palestine from Europe, Western Asia, and North Africa in the late-19th and early-20th centuries. Later Jewish immigration from Ethiopia, the states of the former Soviet Union, and the Americas introduced new cultural elements to Israeli society and have had a profound impact on modern Israeli culture. Since Israel's independence in 1948, Israelis and people of Israeli descent have a considerable diaspora, which largely overlaps with the Jewish diaspora but also with that of other ethnic and religious groups; it is estimated that almost 10 percent of the general Israeli population lives abroad, particularly in Russia (with Moscow housing the single largest Israeli community outside of Israel), India, Canada, the United Kingdom, the United States, and throughout Europe.

1. Israelis

   Israelis, are citizens or nationals of the modern state of Israel. Israel is a multiethnic society which is home to people of different ethnic and national backgrounds. The largest ethnic group comprises Ashkenazi Jews, followed by Sephardi and Mizrahi Jews, Palestinians, Bedouin, Druze, and other minorities. However, hundreds of thousands of Israelis have a mixed heritage of at least two ethnic groups, due to cross-cultural intermarriage. Israel is a multicultural nation which is home to a wide variety of traditions and values. Large-scale aliyah in the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries from Jewish diaspora communities in Europe and Yemen and more recent large-scale aliyah from North Africa, Western Asia, North America, South America the Former Soviet Union and Ethiopia introduced many new demographic elements and have had broad impact on Israeli culture. Israelis and people of Israeli descent live all over the world: in the United States, Canada, the United Kingdom and throughout Europe.
