The location of IsraelAn enlargeable map of Israel
The following outline is provided as an overview of and topical guide to Israel:
Israel – country in the Middle East, on the southeastern shore of the Mediterranean Sea and the northern shore of the Red Sea. The State of Israel (Medinat Yisrael) came into existence as the homeland for the Jewish people at the termination of Mandatory British Palestine on 14 May 1948, through the Israeli Declaration of Independence.[1]
This was followed by massive migration of Jews from both Europe and the Muslim countries to Israel, and of Arabs from Israel, contributing to the extensive and still ongoing Arab–Israeli conflict.
Israel's financial capital and technology center is Tel Aviv[2] and the proclaimed capital is Jerusalem, although the state's sovereignty over the city of Jerusalem is internationally unrecognized.[3][4] About 43% of the world's Jews live in Israel today, the largest Jewish community in the world.[5]
