The scattering of the Jews is known as the Diaspora ('dispersion'), or simply "the Dispersion."
The Jewish Diaspora means the entirety of the Jewish exile: the Jews in all the places of their exile in recent millenia.
The Diaspora (scattering of the Jewish people) began because we were unable to live in the Holy Land. The prophets had constantly warned the Israelites that ignoring the Torah would result in exile.
In 68 CE, the Romans destroyed the Second Temple. The Romans did not force the Jews out of Judea in a single expulsion. Rather, the Romans expelled them from Jerusalem only; and the rest of Judea lost its Jews slowly, over a period of centuries, as living there became too harsh.
Those Jews who left Judea went to southern Europe, North Africa, Arabia, the Near East, and (slowly) further afield (especially throughout Europe).

1) Around 2600 years ago, the Assyrians forcibly exiled the Ten Israelite tribes to points unknown. A small percentage of each of these tribes is still among us, but most of them were exiled and didn't return.
3) In 68 CE, the Romans destroyed the Second Temple. The Romans did not force the Jews out of Judea in a single expulsion. Rather, the Romans expelled them from Jerusalem only; and the rest of Judea lost its Jews slowly, over a period of centuries, as living there became too harsh. Even then, we have records of Jewish communities who lived in Judea (Palestine) during the entire period of the last two millenia.

The diaspora (scattering) was difficult for us:
1) Because certain mitzvot (such as those related to agriculture in the Holy Land) now became suspended for the duration of the exile.
2) Because of the impediment to communication between the various communities. This could lead to the development of rivaling groups, each claiming to be authentic.
3) Because the Jews were now a minority among other nations, who were sometimes quite hostile.
4) Along with the Torah, the Land of Israel (Judea) and the Holy Temple had been central to Judaism. It now was to be seen whether Torah-observance could be maintained on the high level that those ideal factors had been conducive to.

How did the diaspora affect the Jews?
To a certain extent, the diaspora caused the various Jewish communities to take on minor aspects of their host countries.
The religion itself was affected little, if at all, since all Jews share the same Torah and Talmud, and differences within halakhah (Jewish laws) are relatively small. In addition, the Jews were dissuaded from assimilating because the Romans were the polar opposite of Judaism; plus the fact that some of their greatest historians spewed diatribes of hate against the Jews.

After a series of revolts, the Romans expelled them from Jerusalem.
they are known as Jews
Most of the Jews remained in Babylonia even after the Second Temple was built. Other Jewish communities at that time were in North Africa, southern Europe, and places such as Yemen, Iran (Persia), and possibly Arabia and Turkey. Some Jews even reached China; the Jewish community of Kaifeng is well-attested.
It is often referred to as the Holocaust.
It's not that the Germans wouldn't let Jews convert, It is that that the Jews couldn't convert. If they did convert, they would still be known as Jews because of their old Jewish records, that the govonment would keep.
The scattering of Jews outside of Judah was called the diaspora. Please see related links.

Scattering of an electromagnetic wave as light is also known as Rayleigh scattering. This process occurs when particles or molecules in the atmosphere scatter sunlight in different directions, resulting in the blue color of the sky and the red hues of sunrise and sunset.
the scattering of light by colloids is known as tyndall effect. it is named after the scientist who discovered it.
Yes. That is explicitly prophesied in Deuteronomy 4:24-5 and other verses.
The scattering of light by colloids and suspensions is called Tyndall effect. This effect occurs when light interacts with particles in the solution or dispersion, causing it to scatter in all directions, making the beam of light visible.
The scattering of light by a colloid is called Tyndall effect. This effect occurs when light is scattered by particles within a colloid, making the beam of light visible due to the reflection and absorption of light by the colloidal particles.
When light changes direction after colliding with particles of matter, it undergoes a process known as scattering. Depending on the size of the particles relative to the wavelength of light, different types of scattering such as Rayleigh scattering or Mie scattering can occur, leading to effects like the blue sky or a red sunset.
