The two camps where the highest numbers were killed were: * Auschwitz - At least 1.1 million victims were murdered there. * Treblinka II - About 870,000 murdered. Note that Treblinka II was an Operation Reinhard camp, and designed only for the purpose of killing victims. (Treblinka I was a hard labour camp).
The Nazis built scores of concentration across German occupied Europe. The two most famous camps used in the Holocaust were Auschwitz and Dachau. Auschwitz is famous for sheer size and for starving, brutally beating, and in many cases, killing through the used of pesticide zyklon-b and then burning the Jewish corpses in ovens. Hundreds of thousands of Jews and others died in this Nazi concentration camp in German occupied Poland. Dachau was a concentration camp in Germany where most German Jews were sent. Thousands were murdered there mostly through starvation, and the Death Rate was much lower Auschwitz

This word is used in preference to the word Holocaust for three main reasons:The Holocaust is used by many to describe all of the victims of Nazi extermination policies.The definition of Holocaust implies sacrifice and many Jews consider this inappropriate as there was no sacrifice involved.The word (or term) Holocaust is currently being hijacked by many other people resulting in it's meaning being eliminated, for example 'Animal Holocaust or African Holocaust or 'Today's Holocaust'. Or 'motorway Holocaust' just to describe a car crash, which obviously is almost the same as the Holocaust.
