The Khazars, Manasseh, and the USA.
The Khazars were a people in southern Russia many of whom converted to Judaism.
The Khazars were descended from Israelite Tribes. Jewish Tradition linked the Khazars to a group from the Tribe of Simeon led by Princes from Manasseh. A leading element amongst the population of the United states is also from Manasseh.
The article below finds parallels between the Khazars and America.

The Khazars, Manasseh, and the USA

[ adapted from "The Khazars. Tribe 13" ]
          "The Khazars. Tribe 13" shows that the Khazars became a powerful and important people. They converted to Judaism. They had originated in Israel as Israelites but lost their Israelite Identity. By converting and identifying anew as Jews they regained the ability to express their Israelite ancestry. This is not necessarily the solution for all those of Israelite descent but at the time in question it was an answer, perhaps the only one. Once they took the decision they kept by it and gave honor to it. There is something inspiring and noble about the Khazar people. We understand that they were of Hebrew origin because of their history, how they acted, their traditions and traditions about them, ethnic and Biblical names associated with them, and the places they first appeared in.

          The Khazars gave protection to the oppressed and needy and Jews in need were helped by them. Jews fled from Moslem and Christian oppressors to the Khazars. The Khazars were blessed by their presence. The Khazars influenced other peoples who also adopted some Judaic customs but did not last the course. Some of these peoples, like the Afghans, borrowed the notion of Israelite descent. In some cases heathen subjects of the Khazars took to themselves appellations (such as Machiri or Magyar) that would testify to Israelite origin if we were not aware that it was their Khazar connection and the general customs of Central Asia that led them to taking these names. The Angles, Saxons, and some of the other peoples who eventually wound up in Western Europe came from these same areas and were kinfolk to the Khazars. They too are of Israelite descent. The Khazars were in Scandinavian and in Scotland. They became part of the Picts. What applies to the Khazars also pertains to their kith and kin. We have Khazar records, Jewish accounts, and the records of Arabs, Armenians, and Russian Christians that on the whole testify to the Khazars being Israelites. Accepting that the Khazars were of Israelite origin fits all the known facts better than any other scenario. It is the easiest explanation for all that we know and it is the most convincing. This is the truth. The one permanent characteristic of the Khazars was their Judaism.
We know the USA is Manasseh because of the following factors:
1. Tribal Demography

2. Manasseh was to become great AFTER Ephraim!

Said the  "Bnei Yissachar" (Tzvi Elimelech Shapira of Dinov 1784-1840):

## Why did Jacob not command that Manasseh be placed on his left side and Ephraim on his right? Why did Jacob have to cross his hands over? The truth is that Manasseh is the firstborn. This is why it says GUIDING HIS HAND WITTINGLY (Genesis 48:14) (and he did not change Manasseh over to the left side) for in truth Manasseh is the firstborn and the most important but he put Ephraim before Manasseh concerning the chronological precedence ##.

This Sage is saying that:  Manasseh remained on the right hand side of Jacob. He fulfilled the destiny of Jacob and expressed more the inner being of Jacob. The left hand of Jacob was on the head of Manasseh. The left hand is the weaker hand and the slower one. It indicated that Manasseh would be slower to reach fruition.
Fishel Mael ("Hashevetim") based on the above and other sources comments (p.490):

## The order of placing of the sons was important both in regards to their positioning concerning Joseph and in that concerning Jacob. Concerning Joseph....Ephraim is the one who fulfills his place and most continues his path...Therefore Joseph set Ephraim on his right-hand side to show that Ephraim is the main principle of his might and the continuer of his path...However concerning Jacob it is just the opposite. Manasseh is closer the path of Jacob...Jacob however guided his hands wittingly to indicate that the greatness of Manasseh would not be revealed so soon...Jacob agreed only that Manasseh remain at his right-hand side for he is destined to complete the quality ...of Jacob himself in the building of the Third Temple ##.

The USA is Manasseh. Britain is Ephraim. The USA became great AFTER Britain.

3. Manasseh Represents Responsible Representation
4. America is Named after Machir first-born son of Manasseh.
          Machir was the first-born son of Manasseh. America was named after Amerigo Vespucci whose name is a Latinised version of the Hebrew name Machir or Ha-Machiri ("belonging to Machir"). It follows that indirectly America was named after Machir.
5. Capitalism and Machir of America
The USA is the foremost Capitalist nation. Without Capitalism the values of the USA and traditional American life-style would have difficulty in coming to expression. The USA gives life and justification to Capitalism throughout the world and benefits from this system. Capitalism represents one aspect of the essence of the USA. The Hebrew name "Machir" and "Ha-Macheri" ("Belonging to Machir") became the word "America".  In Hebrew the name "Machir" connotes "selling" or "price' and encapsulates the Principle of Capitalism. Machir was the first-born son of Manasseh whose descendants helped found the USA.
6. Yank and Jacob
          "Yank" is a nickname for American. Yank means Jack which is short for Jacob. Manasseh was attached more to Jacob whereas Ephraim was closer to Joseph.
7. The Presidential System
          Kings from Ephraim had absolute powers. R. M. Shlanger ("Shivtei Nachalatecha", Israel 5766-2005) analyzed leading figures in the Bible appointed from the Tribe of Manasseh as compared with those from Ephraim.  Based on linguistic distinctions he came to the conclusion that Kings from Manasseh were really only "Princes" ("Sar" [singular], "Sarim" [plural]) appointed for specific purposes for limited periods of time. This is the presidential system of Government that the USA is governed by and dependent upon.
The USA is Manassheh.
Manasseh is Tribe 13.
Manasseh is the Thirteenth Tribe.
The USA also partakes of Tribe 13 characteristics.
Take a US dollar bill and consider the following:
13 original colonies,
13 signers of the Declaration of Independence,
13 stripes on the flag,
13 steps on the Pyramid,
13 letters in, 'Annuit Coeptis,'
13 letters in 'E Pluribus Unum,'
13 stars above the Eagle,
13 bars on the shield,
13 leaves on the olive branch,
13 berries or fruits
13 arrows.

They really were the Thirteenth Tribe.
"The Khazars" gave expression to what they were by becoming "Tribe 13" as shown in the work, "The Khazars. Tribe 13".
