1) ASBs transport all the worlds Jews in 1300 AD to uninhabited New Zealand with all their personal property, including houses, money, tools, animals, books, gardens, community buildings (synagogues). These all vanish from where they were in Europe, Africa, and Asia. Any gentile servants or guests at their homes do not come along.
to avoid starvation, their supplies are also augmented by well distributed grain silos marked in Hebrew letters ‘for leavened bread this year’,‘for unleavened bread this year’ and ‘seed grain for planting, not eating’.
This TL works under the assumption the first Maori did not arrive until 1320, so the Jews have at least 20 years as the first and only humans in NZ.
what happens to the old world missing its Jews and Jewish New Zealand over the ensuing centuries?
2) in 1300, ASBs ‘sort’ the Mediterranean world, moving all Christians in Asia, Africa north of Ethiopia, and the Mediterranean islands onto the geographically and culturally most proximate part of Europe. The ASBs move all Muslims in Europe and the Mediterranean islands to the geographically and culturally most proximate parts of Africa and Asia. Finally they move all Jews from the Christian and Muslim majority lands of Europe, Asia, and Africa, except Ethiopia, and move them to the now uninhabited archipelagos of the Mediterranean. This having been accomplished, what happens next?
3) ASBs studying the long history of Russo-Turkish wars decide they want to intervene and limit them by effecting a magical teleportation population exchange of Ottoman Christians for Russian Empire Muslims. They want to do an exchange when the effected populations are as equal as possible to allow each society and each group of teleports to cope best. When is about the best year or decade for the ASBs to accomplish an exchange where numbers of Ottoman Christians and Muslim Russians match as closely as possible? If even #s are never possible you can bring in members of a third religion to ‘balance the books.’
