The Exiles Arrive

Word reaches our Ruler Title that Origin Country has driven its Jewish subjects from its shores, and that a great many of them now wait at our ports with nothing but what they could carry. Our Burghers see in their arrival a windfall of skilled hands and ready capital, while our Clergy see a mass of strangers whose loyalty and faith we cannot yet vouch for. Whatever we decide will be remembered by every exile who hears of it.

historical_info = d009_sephardi_diaspora.1.historical_info Sultan Bayezid II is said to have remarked that Ferdinand of Aragon impoverished his own country and enriched the Ottomans by expelling the Jews, and he ordered his provincial governors to welcome the exiles and not to turn them away. Tens of thousands settled across the Ottoman Balkans and Anatolia over the following decades, bringing printing presses, textile techniques, and trade networks that measurably enriched Ottoman cities, especially Thessaloníki and Constantinople.
