27 août 1897 - First Zionist Congress Convenes
Description:
The First Zionist Congress convenes in Basel Switzerland, led by Theodor Herzl. The incident was influential in how it cemented Zionism as a potent political force, and the vast coverage it received in international press would be a contributing factor in both rising European antisemitism and select European governments' friendliness to Zionism as a colonizing force.Ajouté au bande de temps:
