Holocaust
The rise of the nazi's and the hatred of the Jews became known as the holocaust. Adolf Hitler being one of the biggest names that is known with the holocaust isn't the only person that contributed to this massacre of Jews. People where held in ghetto camps and later sent to concentration camps and the things that put this all together was the use of persuasion method known as propaganda. These three things make up the holocaust. Adolf Hitler one of the main people responsible for the whole holocaust era in Germany but was he the only one for the blame of this massacre? Heinrich Himmler was the commander of the SS and in 1933 after Nazis came to control he took over and expanded the Gestapo. He was also responsible in 1944 for killing of the SA, which was another part of the Army associated it with the Nazi party, was killed by SS a higher rank in the army. He also bargained off Jewish prisoners for his own safety and later took his own life before he could be brought to his trial. Adolf Eichman or "Grand Inquisitor" was a member of the SS, as a child he was fascinated with combat war vehicles and had the same History teach as Hitler who filled their minds with corrupt racist ideas.

Ghettos were pretty much the first step of getting all the Jews and "non-perfect Germans". Ghettos were small villages with an over crowding of population, they put Jewish people in here pretty much like a prison but worse because there was no food for them, most died of starvation and these people were often watched so they couldn't practice there religion. The nazi's setup around 365 smaller ghettos in areas like Poland, Soviet Union, the Baltic States, Czechoslovakia, Romania, and Hungary between 1939 and 1945. Those ghettos were temporary until they can be moved into bigger ghettos usually in the bigger cities where these ghettos were closed off with bricks, stonewalls and other type of boundaries. These ghettos also called the Warsaw ghettos had guards set up as well. The largest Warsaw ghettos had up to 400,00 people living in these residential areas, but usually the smaller ghettos held about 3,000 them. They often had real bad plumbing problems and there was no heat, you pretty much had to fend for yourself. Jewish people were required to have yellow star attached on their clothing to identify them as a Jew and even though they were not suppose to practice their religion they had secret practicing's but so secret not everybody knew they existed. Some people were allowed to leave ghettos but not many when you got here you know there was not much hope left. Jews were later sent on trains packed in tightly to fit as many bodies as possible to concentration camps. Soon after Hitler was appointed, the SA (Storm Troopers) and police established the first concentration camp. Dachau, opened in March 1933 being one of the first Nazi concentration camps. This camp was originally used for only known political opponents of the Nazis: Communists, Social Democrats, and others who had been condemned in a court of law. Later a more diverse group was imprisoned, including Jews, Jehovah's Witnesses, Gypsies, dissenting clergy, homosexuals and others that criticized the government. Camp Auschwitz was the famous and largest concentration camp of all, started in 1940 had about 39 mini camps located inside and had up 3 main parts. The 1st part was the central part, the second part was called Birkenau, and the 3rd part was the labor camp or also known as Monowitz. "The concentration and death-camp complex at Auschwitz-Birkenau was the largest killing center in the entire Nazi universe; the very heart of their system."
