who first forced jews to wear badges identifying themselves?
mongols
medieval catholic church
nazi germany
The requirement for Jews to wear identifying badges was a practice that began in the Middle Ages. The Medieval Catholic Church, through various decrees and regulations, was among the first to enforce such a measure. This was part of a broader set of discriminatory practices against Jews during that era. The Mongols did not have a widespread practice of forcing Jews to wear badges as a common or systematic form of identification in the same sense. Nazi Germany's use of the yellow star for Jewish identification was a much later and more infamous instance, but it was not the first.
