...Israel. Israel's Druze, who live in villages…
1957 CE
Israel's Druze, who live in villages in Galilee and around Mount Carmel, have traditionally formed a closed, tight-knit community and practiced their secretive religion.
Though Israeli Druze maintain contact with coreligionists in Lebanon and Syria, members of each group adhere to the authority of the country of their residence.
In 1957, Israel recognizes the Druze as a separate Arab community (and will eventually permit Israeli Druze to serve in the armed forces).
