The holocaust was the extermination of the Jews and other people who Hitler considered lower. It is one of the world's biggest destructions that caused the murders of millions of Jewish people, which took place during WWII. The Holocaust directed by the Nazi Empire destroyed millions of lives and created questions about mankind that may never be answered. Many psychological effects caused by the Holocaust forever changed the way the Jewish people view the world and themselves.

Jews were not the only victims of the Nazis during World War II. The Nazis also imprisoned and killed people who opposed their government on grounds of beliefs. This included Germans wh

Until 1929 the National Socialist German Workers' Party, as the Nazi Party was officially called, was a small political party. Then, in the parliamentary elections of 1930, the party received more than 18 percent of the total votes cast, compared to about 2.5 percent in 1928. The bulk of the votes for the Nazis came from the middle classes and the well-to-do rather than from workers and unemployed people. The major factors in the Nazis' electoral success were lingering anger at Germany's military collapse toward the end of World War I. Also there was resentment toward the Versailles treaty, which had ended the war and imposed harsh conditions on Germany, the worldwide economic depression of the 1930s, fear of the spread of Communism and Hitler's charismatic personality.

Out of 7,640,000 Jews in Eastern Europe, it has been calculated that around 5,750,000 were killed during the Holocaust. The fortunate who survived in these death camps would be changes for the rest of their lives. One man sentenced 5,750,000 people to their deaths based solely on who they were, and what they believed. This man will be remembered though out history for the evil things that he set forth among millions of people. He is remembered as "one man who came to close to achieving his ultimate dream;" destroying the Jewish population, and controlling Eastern Europe. This one man, Adolf Hitler, will never be forgotten

In the spring of 1941, as preparations were under way for the invasion of the USSR, Hitler proclaimed that a war of destruction was about to start. He called for the elimination of the Bolshevik leadership. This designed the foundation for the extermination of what Hitler considered to be the biological source of Bolshevism, the Jews of the USSR. The killings were to be conducted by four mobile SS units called Einsatzgruppen. Einsatzgruppen were action squads, each consisting of about 1,000 men. In addition to the Einsatzgruppen, there were other SS and police units commissioned to shoot Jews who were to be assembled in front of mass graves dug by the Jews themselves. On many occasions after the military campaign started in June 1941, the German army was called on to provide support to the SS and police units. Therefore, the total number of Germans involved in the horrible mass shootings of Jews was around 30,000.

By 1930 German society was unable to forge a political consensus. The fact that no party was able to establish a majority government created a vacuum of power and a political stalemate. Most Germans wanted to replace the republic and its multitude of competing parties with an absolute system that promised stability and employment. Therefore, the Nazi's gained in popularity during the 1930 elections. In the parliamentary elections of September 1932, the Nazis did even better, receiving about 38 percent of the votes. The support Hitler received from the Conservative Party
