HolocaustSarah

During the Holocaust, the Nazis killed nearly 6 million European Jews. They also killed millions of people from other groups they considered inferior.

Although the Nazis persecuted anyone who dared oppose them..., they reserved their strongest hatred for the Jews. This hatred went far beyond the European anti-Semitism that was common during those times. The Jews were discriminated against in many ways including being segregated in ghettos or being prohibited to own land....

After the Nazis took power, they moved to deprive German Jews of many rights. The Nuremberg Laws were set in place....

The Nuremberg Laws lead to //Kristallnacht//, and that leads to Jewish refugees trying desperately to get away from Germany and being sent to the concentration camps.
