The Romans were controlling it, but Jerusalem was still mainly populated by Jews. There's no denying that Jesus was Jewish though. And especially back then, Jews were definitely more tied to race than they are today, infact, back then you could say they were a race.
Wasn't Jerusalem Palestinian?
No...

Arabs/Palestinians came way after the days of Rome. You could say that Palestinians may have been there as well, but like how modern day Jews are mainly Eastern European, modern day Palestinians are mainly Arabs and also Muslims.

So who owned Jerusalem in Jesus time?

Romans!

Over the years I think it changed hands a few times between the Romans/Byzantines and the Persians, but the area was still mainly Jewish in population. Then Islam was invented and they went on a rampage and attacked both the Persians and the Byzantines and pretty much took control of the whole of the Middle East. Then, I'm not so sure what the Jewish population did whilst under Muslim rule but something must've spooked them off into Europe and other countries.

Nazis/Germans seemed to have disliked Jews yet thought it was ok to continue following Christianity like Jesus wasn't even Jewish. I always laughed at them for that.

Maybe that's why they failed so miserably, the dumb asses

Even todays neo-nazi's and white-supremacists. They're all still mainly Christian. They act like Christianity is a White man/European religion. Then again,no point in even talking about the logic of these kind of people

Greek.

In other news, AoM was one of my favorite games ever.

edit: Norse is also amazing now that I remember.  Fenris, Ragnarok, that dragon thing, etc.

My favorite is, for some odd reason, Greek mythology's Icarus (and his father Daedalus) and the story of flying too close to the sun.  (For more info, click here).
