And I mean the cultural separation. As an Ashkenazic Jew myself, I have to say that while we did stay seperate in some ways, for the most part, we just added on to our own culture. As for the Spanish Jews, you are absolutely right. Not just culturaly like the Ashkenazim, the Spanish Jews had to either convert, leave or die. It was about equal parts, so many people with Spanish roots also have Jewish roots. While I am mostly Ashkenazim, I also have some Sephardi (Spanish, North African etc) in me as well.
