Activity 6: The Holocaust

1.  The holocaust was a period of time where the Nazi Secret Police exterminated over 6 million innocent Jews.

2.  They wanted to kill them because they believed that all Jewish people were bad and that there were very bad example of the Aryan race, and so Hitler gave the order to exterminate Jews in death camps on a daily basis.

3.  They had large camps called concentration camps or death camps, e.g. Aushwitz where they just gassed thousands and thousands of Jews everyday.

4.  The world reacted very badly to the mass genocide. The Nazis were hated and after the war many, many sanctions were placed on them and they were not allowed to have a military.
