The Holocaust is a term for the Nazi's attempt to eliminate Europe's Jews. There were other groups who suffered under the Nazis; for example the Gypsies arguably were subjected to greater decimation, but these actions, though in the same time and place were separate from the Holocaust, carried out under different orders.
Blacks and LGBTQ people were also victims.
The term refers to "The Final Solution to the Jewish Problem in Europe". The Nazis considered the very existence of Jews in Europe to be a threat to Germany, thus they had to solve that problem. After considering some other ideas, they finally decided just to kill them all, every Jewish person in Europe. There were less than seven million Jews in Europe at the start of World War II; the Germans killed six million of them. Although they also killed millions of other people whom they regarded as inferior, it was the Jews who were the subject of the Final Solution.

In many cases the victims were forced to work in quarrying and coal-mining. Some worked in chemical industries and various other industries. They were given insufficient food and most perished. A small number of the victims were employed in non-manual jobs, such as office work. Some had to sort the good that Jews and others had brought with them. A very small number were employed in the Sonderkommandos (special squads) and had to help with cremating the corpses of victims who had been gassed. It is known that a peculiarly revolting feature of the Holocaust was that some victims were forced in a sense to help in the process of their own destruction.
