New Israel
New Israel (Новый Израиль) was one of the Sektanstvo (sectarian) new religious movements that grew and expanded in the Russian Empire in the late 19th to early 20th century, a branch of the ''Postniki'' (fasters). The movement was the result of the schisms that split the "Old Israel" (''Staroizrail'') sect after the death of Perfil Katasonov. Its founder was a peasant named Mokshin, but it rose to notability only under Mokshin's successor, Vasiliy Semionovitch Lubkov (Василий Семенович Лубков, born December 24, 1869). In the 1910s, members of the sect emigrated to Uruguay, where they founded the town of San Javier. New Israel was strongly influenced by the '' Dukhovnye Khristiane'' movement, and in turn gave rise to two new religious sects called ''Noviy soyuz duhovnovo Israilia'' (Новый союз духовного Израиля) and ''Novohristianskiy soyuz'' (Новохристианский союз).

Ethnic Groups In Uruguay
Uruguayans ( es, uruguayos) are people identified with the country of Uruguay, through citizenship or descent. Uruguay is home to people of different ethnic origins. As a result, many Uruguayans do not equate their nationality with ethnicity, but with citizenship and their allegiance to Uruguay. Colloquially, primarily among other Spanish-speaking Latin American nations, Uruguayans are also referred to as "''orientals s in Easterners'" ( es, orientales).

Uruguay has one of the most homogeneous populations in South America; the most common ethnic backgrounds by far being those from Spain, Italy, Germany and France i.e. Spanish Uruguayans, Italian Uruguayans, German Uruguayans , French Uruguayans and Polish Uruguayans.
