What group of people got the rawest end of deal throughout history?

I'm guessing the slavs, just from their name.

This should be interesting

Jews

Jews are always blamed for everything, even today. But at least they have Israel and a powerful military force. And their women! :D

So maybe the Native Americans since they got screwed over, even with their reservations. And they're pretty much a dying breed, right? Or am I wrong?

The Jews is the most obvious answer, and are still persecuted in some countries today (mainly Eastern Europe and soem Middle Eastern countries) however it's not as bad as it used to be and Jewish Americans have become well integrated in society and are have been successful.

The other answer would be Native Americans, they have had a rough history no doubt but they are the only ethnicity that is still sort of treated as 2nd class citizen. Not b the American people so much, but by the American Government. They just screwed them over and gave them some really bad land that no person would want to live on, and they just left them there.

On top of this they don't get many of the same resources as other Americans do, so they don't have the best education systems and are prone to alcholism because their ethnicity has higher enzymes or something, and many of them arn't aware of it because they arn't told. And the majority of them live in poverty, if anyone in America today has the most problems, it's the Native Americans.

The Edmonton Oilers got the rawest deal in history when they traded Wayne Gretzky for a bunch of nobodies.

I am aware of that and I think that is unfair, but their reservations are basically 3rd world countries. I've been through one, it didn't look like a place you would want to stop and spend the night at, let alone live there.

The Jews have definitely had a tough past, and Israel is always in conflict, but they are now an established nation and have a pretty strong military. Native Americans however have been essentially ghettoized worse than any other ethnic group on their reserves and their population is dwindling fast.

Anyone we (British) invaded during the rise of the Empire. We did some pretty bad things to them all. Killed millions, enslaved even more. It's unfair to single out any one of them as we pretty much devistated the way of life in many continents for a good few hundred years or so.

Africans, easily. Say what you will about the Jews having a few rough spots, they've done fairly well for themselves.

Jews. Enslaved for a period throughout history and were victims of the holocaust.

Unless there was a contintent wide genocide that I missed, I'll say the Jewish.

All people have suffered and I don't think its possible or even wise to quantify their sufferring. Europeans suffered greatly during the middle ages due to the plague and Orthodox Christians also suffered due to constant attacks by the islamic middle east.

So what do you think? Id probably say Native americans. Theres a fraction left of what there used to be and the only pat on the back THE MAN gave them was crappy reservations. Jews have been around a loooong time andtheyve had some rough history so maybe them..Capitan_Kid

This topic will only incite dumb comparisons of tragic events in history.

The Jews have been persecuted since the dawn of time.

Jews, they've been ****ed over pretty much everywhere in the world for the entirety of history.markop2003

Agreed. Pretty cool of Truman to recognize Israel just 11 minutes after they declared themselves a nation.

Sub Saharan Africans by a long shot. No other group even comes close.
