The Holocaust was an attempt by Nazi Germany to commit the genocide of the Jewish people, as well as other marginalized groups.

The hatred of Jews in Germany started when the Nazi party rose to power. They blamed Jews for all of their misfortunes. This led to the Nazi secret police, the Gestapo, shutting down all Jewish owned businesses.

Even after the closing of Jewish businesses, the hate of Jews was so strong that they forced them to move to certain blocks of cities called "ghettos". These ghettos were closed in by barbed wire fence and armed guards.

Inside the Ghettos, life was terrible. Disease ran rampant, and the inhabitants lacked access to quality food or medical care. Though inhabitants were allowed to move around within the Ghetto, it was very cramped and many died.

Even in the Ghettos, the Jews were viewed as a waste of space. They were sent to concentration camps all over Germany. Concentration camps were makeshift prisons where people would be stripped of their clothing, crammed together, and put to work. Many died in the harsh working conditions.

Later in the war, as the situation became more dire for Germany, they created extermination camps. The Jews that had survived through riots, ghettos, and concentration camps would be brought here. They would be taken to massive chambers, were they would be gassed to death.

There were some resistance movements inside the ghettos and camps, but it was almost impossible to resist, since they were malnourished and had no weapons.

The scar that the Holocaust left on the Jewish people has lasted for many years, and still exists to this day. The camps were eventually liberated once the Allies advanced into Germany. The Holocaust was one of humanity's darkest hours, one which should never be repeated.
