A refuge for Portuguese Marranos returning to Judaism from 1600, Amsterdam saw the rise of a prosperous Sephardic community, the 'Nação', crowned by the Portuguese Synagogue of 1675. Tolerant and mercantile, it became a great centre of Hebrew printing, even as it excommunicated Spinoza. A large Ashkenazi community developed alongside it.
