== History == In the late 19th and 20th centuries, as Sephardim and Ashkenazi Hasidim increasingly came into contact with one another, many Sephardim began joining the ranks of Hasidic sects such as Chabad, Breslov, and Satmar. The merging of these traditions was particularly notable in the Sephardic communities of Israel, though Sephardic Hasidim exist in other countries such as; the United States and Morocco.<ref>{{Cite web |title=A History of the Jewish People — Harvard University Press |url=https://www.hup.harvard.edu/books/9780674397316 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20240925141144/https://www.hup.harvard.edu/books/9780674397316 |archive-date=2024-09-25 |access-date=2024-12-17 |website=Harvard University Press |language=en}}</ref><ref>{{Cite news |title=The Satmar Hasidic Sect and the Exodus of Yemeni Jews |url=https://jcpa.org/article/the-satmar-hasidic-sect-and-the-exodus-of-yemeni-jews/ |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20240518044130/https://jcpa.org/article/the-satmar-hasidic-sect-and-the-exodus-of-yemeni-jews/ |archive-date=2024-05-18 |access-date=2024-12-14 |work=Jerusalem Center for Public Affairs |language=en-US}}</ref><ref>{{Cite web |title=Breslover Manhigim (Leaders) |url=https://www.breslov.com/vaad/leaders.html |access-date=2024-12-14 |website=www.breslov.com}}</ref><ref>{{Cite web |title=Is Chabad Ashkenazic or Sephardic in its customs, Hebrew pronunciation, etc.? |url=https://www.chabad.org/library/article_cdo/aid/591965/jewish/Is-Chabad-Ashkenazic-or-Sephardic.htm |access-date=2024-12-14 |website=www.chabad.org |language=en}}</ref>
