German Nazi Concentration And Extermination Camp (1940-1945)

Auschwitz concentration camp, also known as Auschwitz- Birkenau, was Nazi Germany’s largest concentration camp (Berenbaum, Auschwitz). The camp was created because Hitler became “convinced that his “Jewish problem” would be solved only with the elimination of every Jew in his domain, along with artists, educators, Gypsies, communists, homosexuals, the mentally and physically handicapped and others deemed unfit for survival in Nazi Germany” (Auschwitz, History.com). Auschwitz was located in southern Poland near the industrial town of Oswiecim (Berenbaum, Auschwitz). Hitler’s team was known as the Secret Service (SS), which included soldiers who patrolled the streets and the men who ran the camps (Uwe Boll, Auschwitz). Auschwitz consisted of

During the Nazi Holocaust, multiple working and death camps were created to hold the captured Jews. While the Jews lived in this camp, they were tortured, mistreated, worked to death and eventually were put to death by either execution by firearm or were put into a death camp which exterminated the Jews using poison gas. The Nazi Party had developed many death camps in the central european area including the 6 death camps of Poland; Auschwitz, Treblinka, Belzec, Chelmno, Sobibor, and Majdanek.

One of the problems Asian American communities faced during World War 2 is concentrations camps. Since the United States went to war all Japanese, Germans, and Italians were seen as enemies so, they were put in camps because the U.S did not did not trust them. Also it was a way to have control over them having them in camps. Over five thousand Japanese were detained and were intern in camps in Mexico, Montana, South Dakota, Los Angeles, and the Bay Area. There were ten more relocations camps located in California, Arizona, Idaho, Wyoming, Utah, and Arkansas.

“Did the United States put its own citizens in concentration camps during WWII?” by Jane McGrath is an article about the Japanese-American Internment Camps during WWII. “Concentration Camps, 1933-1939” is about the German persecution of Jews in concentration camps prior to WWII. While both of the articles talk about countries imprisoning their own people, both did extremely different things with their prisoners.

Auschwitz Birkenau located in Oswiecim Poland, The holocaust began in May 26, 1940. Over 1.1 million people had died at birkenau many people had died because of hunger, disease, horrible conditions, and the gas chambers. The holocaust began shortly after world war 2 began, hitler and the nazi party rose to power due to political power circumstances.

The Japanese internment camps are not the same compared to Jewish concentration camps one is for protection another is for prison.The Jews were useless to the Nazis and the Japanese just wanted protection from the war.The Americans never helped the Jews until the Japanese attacked pearl harbor.The Jews were held up in the concentration camps to them it was like prison.Japanese internment camps and Jewish concentration camps are not the same because the purpose of the camps are different,the way people were treated,and the outcome of the camps.

World War II was a time of grieving those lost, praying for near ones, and coming together as one to survive. The notorious concentration camps; established as part of Hitler's Final Solution to exterminate all Jews, left one of the longest lasting impacts on world history. Soon after, the United States put an internment camps where Japanese-Americans were kept shortly after the bombing of Pearl Harbor due to stereotypes surrounding their race. Comparing the German concentration camps to the American internment camps shows a contrast in the harsh reality of the living conditions in these concentration camps and the more peaceful approach that was kept within internment camps in America. These differences and similarities can be shown in the

Anti-semitism in Germany led by Adolf Hitler would back up a plan called the final solution, to exterminate all of the Jews in Europe. Out of the 100 million Jews aimed for extermination, 6 million of them were killed. On his path to German greatness, Jews became victim to inconceivable actions. First the Nuremberg Laws were passed which stripped Jews of their german citizenship, eliminating their opportunity to flee to other countries. After Kristallnacht, the Night of Broken Glass, Hitler forcefully deported Jewish people into fenced confinements called ghettos. More Jews died here than in any extermination camp due to the harsh conditions and labor. Most people living in ghettos had no access to running water or a sewage system and overcrowding

In the 1930s and 1940s, concentration camps were spread all across Nazi Germany. Within these camps were various groups of people. During World War II, forced women's labor occurred in the concentration camp of Ravensbrück.

What is a concentration camp to you? Most likely you would say a horrible place where they followed Jews. To the many Jewish people who had nowhere to go, this was more or less a place to stay and not a place to die. So in other words to the many people that were being shipped to these camps, they almost had no choice. If you had no food water or shelter, most likely you would turn to the first person to help you, and the first person they turned to wasn’t the right one at all. But how could someone like Hitler, a failure in school, become such a feared warlord? Well from research I learned that Hitler had a meeting to create a group that would eventually slaughter the Jews through thorough planning and most likely through the start of a war.

Millions of people go up and down its steps, some of them knowing their past, others taking pictures in it while knowing little of the cultural importance. The landscape itself is a city, and should not be forgotten. A city welcomes people, and allows for many cultures to be living together in one location. In the case of Teotihuacan, it is not enough to debate who owns it, the debate should entertain ways people could work together to conserve the site, and allow everyone to have a similar knowledge of what each step means. The indigenous should not be pushed away, and the tourists should still be encouraged to visit. After all, the indigenous economy also depends on tourist activity, and the sale of their art and work to a curious other. Much like this symbiosis on the grounds of the site, the cooperation of all parties should be promoted on a facilitative level. The government knows the ins and outs of efficiently running the tourist site, yet the indigenous have alternative knowledge to offer the visitors. Whether their participation comes in the form of workshops, culturally immersive tours or seats at the administrative table, the indigenous should be welcomed into playing a more active role in the tourism that takes place at Teotihuacan, to ensure the wellbeing of the site. The tourist still seeks what is authentic, and the actions taken by the indigenous will allow for Teotihuacan to once again be transformed

Hunter:How would you feel if at the age of 9 you were sent to a Nazi concentration camp? Marion Blumenthal Lazan had this happen to her.

March 1933 was the concentration camp “Death camp” and established by the national socialist government Adolf Hitler put the jaws into the camp so that he would kill them.But by the end of WWll many of gypsies, homosexuals and Anti-Nazi civilians from.between 1933 and 1945, Nazi Germany and its allies established more than 40,000 camps and other incarceration sites. The perpetrators used these sites for a range of purposes, including forced labor, detention of people thought to be enemies of the state, and mass murder. The total number of sites is based upon ongoing research in the perpetrators' own records.

The Nazi action that marked the final stage of the "Final Solution" was reached in 1942. The Nazis created extermination camps that had huge gas chambers that would kill up to 6,000 people in a day. When the prisoners came to Auschwitz, the largest of the camps they walked before a board of SS doctors.
