THe Holocaust
The Holocaust is one of the most tragic events in human history. It occurred during World War II when Hitler was leader of Germany. Six million Jewish people were murdered by the Nazis. This included as many as 1 million Jewish children. Millions of other people that Hitler didn't like were killed as well. This included Polish people, Catholics, Serbs, and handicapped people. This happened because Hitler came into power and hated Jewish people and blamed them for Germany
losing World War I. He considered Jewish people to be less than human. Hitler
also believed in the superiority of the Aryan race. He wanted to use Darwinism
and breeding to create a race of perfect people
