The Jumblatt Family (Joumblatt, Junblat, Junblatt, ...) is an influential Druze family who settled in the Lebanon mountains (coming from Syria) around the 15-16th century, fleeing persecution from the Ottoman governor.

To this day, Walid Jumblatt remains the principal leader of the Druzes (an influential religious community found in the Middle-East, known for its bravery and important historical role in the shaping of countries such as Lebanon), and a very influential figure in Lebanese politics, and sometimes even beyond that. His son, Taymoor, is being prepared to do the same in the future.

His father, Kamal Jumblatt, a major political, cultural, and philosophical figure of the Middle-East, was assassinated in 1977 at the hand of Syrian agents in the Lebanese mountains. Kamal Jumblatt was a highly respected political leader and a writer of many books, touching on very diverse subjects from philosophy to healthy nutrition.

There are also many Jumblatt characters that played a very significant role in Lebanese history. Mrs. Nazira Jumblatt (mother of Kamal), a smart and capable lady, played an important role in keeping the dynasty alive, in a time when it was hard for women to play a political role. Before that, Sheikh Bashir Jumblatt was assassinated, during times of confrontation with the prince Bashir II.
