The Holocaust was the state-sponsored genocide of 6 million Jews by Nazi Germany and its collaborators from 1933 to 1945. Adolf Hitler, establishing himself as a dictator, identified Jewish people as the primary enemy, basing this on flawed racial theories. Initiatives like the Nuremberg Laws, Kristallnacht, and subsequent mass executions in gas chambers led to the horrific deaths of millions. The article presents firsthand accounts from survivors and those who participated in the atrocities, stressing the importance of learning from these historical events to prevent future genocides.
Innocent men, women, and children were shot in mass executions, or sent to labour camps where they worked until they could do so no longer.
Hitler identified Jewish people as the main enemy of the state and launched a propaganda campaign portraying them as an inferior race incomprehensibly harmful to Germany.
