AnswerDuring the Holocaust many Jews and non Jews alike were killed by the Nazis. The Germans set up what they called extermination camps which was the place were the Germans killed there prisoners. The other place was called a ghetto and those were the places that they kept there prisoners and made them work and do other things that the Germans wanted done.

AnswerDuring the holocaust Hitler took revenge on the Jews and the non Jews but mostly on the Jews because of what happened to him when he was younger living in Vienna. he took them away to the concentration camp where they were put to death in the gas chambers known as the shower room, also he would kill the littler ones and sickling and keep the healthier ones as slaves. he put a big red 'j' on the Jews passport he would also vandalise their businesses and also he would send the children to separate schools from the Germans.

Everyone thinks Hitler was crazy but maybe he wasn't, maybe he did want it all to end but it was to late to stop it. Yes he shouldn't have killed all those innocent people but think it wasn't just him, it was many people all who had the power to stop it, so why didn't they? Yes some people may say that their grandparents or maybe even parents were brainwashed but they weren't. Hitler youth may have been, but still every person can think for themselves. Holocast was a way for Hitler to get rid of every one he didn't like or the types of people he didn't like AnswerMillions of people were killed in concentration camps during WW2 by Hitler because of their race including Jews, Gypsies, or because they were homosexuals, and so on.

Hitler picked on the Jews and other groups of people including Gypsies,gays ect because they were the minority. They had less people fighting for them. although there were alot of Jews in and around Germany there was still less of them than other groups of people. Hitler used them to blame everything on,for Hitler Jews were like a scape goat. For the comment a little above about it being because of what happened to Hitler in Vienna it is wrong. During the time just after the Germans lost the war Hitler found a group of people who said that it was the Jews fault, he lived his life believing this evil and completely wrong lie!AKA JEWS DIED!

Answer

The Holocaust refers to the persecution and murder of Jews by Nazis under the German leader Adolf Hitler. This term is sometimes also used to describe genocide of Jewish people in other time periods or regimes as well. The origin of this word is likely from Greek origin (holokauston) where" holos" means whole and "kauston" means burnt. The holocaust lasted from April 1933 till the end of World War II.

The estimated number of people who were murdered during the holocaust adds up to 14 million, including many women and children. Out of these nearly 7 million were Jewish, (about 68% of Jewish people in Europe), the rest were Gypsies and Homosexuals, mainly those labeled as outcasts by the Nazis at that time.

In the beginning of the Nazi movement most Jewish establishments were boycotted and several laws were introduced to discriminate against them. This included laws against mixed marriages, appearance in public places, and against holding government jobs. They were also ordered to wear a label or yellow star which helped identify them in public places, and moved to confined spaces called the ghetto.

The first report of physical violence against the Jews came from Germany and Austria where the Jewish establishments were destroyed and looted, Jewish people were attacked and a large number were sent to concentration camps.

Then the Nazis started torturing and executing Jews, by transporting them from ghettos to concentration camps on the pretext of providing them with work. Camps were set up for different purposes. The different camps included concentration cams, extermination cams, labor camps, transit camps etc, where Jews were held for different time periods and purposes. From 1938 till the end of the war, these camps were the site where endless torture, medical experiments and murder was inflicted on Jews.

The conditions at these camps were beyond comprehension. People were not given enough food, given hard wooden beds to sleep on, and treated very unkindly. Many unethical medical experiments were also conducted on adults and children against their will. The concentration camps were designed for hard labor and those living there often died of starvation. The extermination camps were specifically set up to perform mass murders. The more famous extermination camp at Auschwitz is known to have killed more than 1 million Jews.

Those that survived the Holocaust were finally liberated from the camps by the allied forces, starting in mid 1944. By that time the Nazis had succeeded in destroying large amount of evidence implicating their role in the holocaust. However, the gruesome memory of the holocaust still remains fresh in people who survived this terrible ordeal.
