Answer:  ASHKENAZIC jews

The Hebrew word "Ashkenaz" referred to Germany.  So "Ashkenazic Jews" is a name used  to refer to those of Jewish ancestry living in Germany, as well as surrounding areas (France and eastern Europe).

The Hebrew word "Sepharad" referred to Spain.  "Sephardic Jews" refers to Jews of Spain and Portugal, as well as North Africa and the Middle East.  Remember that migration of Jewish and Arab populations into Spain and Portugal came by way of North Africa, so that helps you understand why those regions are all grouped under the name "Sephardic."

How long did the flag of 1956
Brums [2.3K]

Answer:

Georgia's 1956 Flag

In 1955 the Atlanta attorney and state Democratic Party leader John Sammons Bell began a campaign to substitute the square Confederate battle flag for the red and white bars on Georgia's state flag.  

State Flag, 1956-2001

State Flag, 1956-2001

Along with Bell, state senators Jefferson Lee Davis and Willis Harden, who were well known for their interest in Georgia's Confederate history, agreed to introduce legislation to change the state flag. Some legislators favored the adoption of a standard state flag as an appropriate way to mark the upcoming centennial of the Civil War. A strong impetus for change, however, was the 1954 and 1955 Brown v. Board of Education decisions, which were bitterly denounced by most Georgia political leaders. The entire 1956 legislative session was devoted to Governor Marvin Griffin's platform of "massive resistance" to federally imposed integration of public schools. In this charged atmosphere, legislation to put the Confederate battle flag on Georgia's state flag sailed through the General Assembly.
