I don't know about you, but I feel like there should be a Jewish minority in Jerusalem.

Agreed - it would be nice to see Jewish communities represented somehow - there were significant Jewish populations in many Muslim cities eg. Jerusalem, Baghdad, Toledo, Seville (maybe have a chance to appear in high development cities in Europe and the Middle East?)

Also they should slowly appear in Poland at the beginning of the 12th century.

Seconding the suggestion for Jewish communities specifically. I've been playing a lot in Iberia lately, and I'd love to have established Jewish communities in Andalusian cities, especially since the popular RICE mod has a lot of flavor for specifically Granada's Jewish minority. Similarly, if you wanted to really go in-depth with Iberia, I think Mozarab minorities should be present across most of the Islamic lands.

how dare you

Hey so I would fourth the idea of a Jewish minority in Jerusalem (I do think making them Samaritan makes sense). a few other ideas for places with Jewish minorities:
middle east- Bahgdad and Samarra in Iraq both should be Karaism. Alexandria in egypt and Constantinople both should be rabbanism.
europe- Cordoba, Granada, Toledo, Barcelona (all in spain, all should be rabinism). Narbonne, Metz, Speyer (in germany and france, still rabinism)
other- tangier morroco, Isfahan (this should be a large minority), herat and kabur (rabanism)

other non jewish ideas:
Yazd- zoroastrianism
dublin- insular christian (large minority)
cairo - islam

cairo - islam

clarifying my idea a little here: the muslim minority in cairo should be a small ashari minority in the early start date and than in 1066 it should be a large coptic minority. this is because 1000 is right around the time islam became the majority religion of egypt so the christian population would still be large.

something similar should be for zoroastians in Yazd. only here they would be a large minority in the early start date and a small minority in the later start date.

dublin's large insular christian minority could be for both starts.

and lastly all the jewish minorities except maybe bahgdad, samarra, toledo, and constantinople can be small minorities. and if anyone is wondering why karaism in iraq its becouse the karaite movement started in iraq about 100 years before the first start date, so by the time the game starts the majority of jews in all of iraq were karaites.

Excellent mod. May I suggest to add the tribal ethnic minorities of India? There are 700 hundreds tribal groups of diverse origin in India, but the major groups are about 19 and more information is available in the Wikipedia : https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Adivasi

Another suggestion would be to add various castes and sub castes. Brahmin people, for example, had been very flexible and various rulers provided them tracts of land on which to settle.

Mandaeans in lower Mesopotamia + Khuzestan

Could we get a rework of the jews around the Orient? Jews in Germany and Iberia speak their respective language but every single jew in the entire Muslim world speaks Shaz Turkic for some reason.

Arab and Persian jews are in the game, why not use them?

There should also be small or large minorities of Mazdayans in pretty much every single county in Persia, Khorasan and Sogdia

Similarly, in Sogdia there should be a ton of small minorities.
These should include Zoroastrians, Jews, Manicheans, Nestorians and Buddhists.

Also also, Afghanistan should have a lot of Buddhists too.
