Just under two. Almost exclusively in Christian countries, for almost all of that time (relatively speaking). Alt-right/neo-nazi types like to say "Jews have been hated everywhere they went" but in fact it was usually just us doing that. Then we kicked everybody else's castles down and (partly due to meddling that the UK was hugely, if ineptly, involved in) global antisemitism was one of the things that emerged as they recovered. There's a savage irony in the way that many post-colonial societies, as they have reconstructed themselves after our departure, hung on to some of the worst things we could have left behind.
