Over 6 million Jews in Europe were exterminated by the Germans and their allies during the war. There were approximately 12 million Jews prior to the war, principally in Poland and the Soviet Union. Many more that survived the death camps, suffered innumberable diseases and hardships after the war.
Most Jews that survived the hell they experienced, were so traumatized that many committed suicide or died before they reached middle age. There will never be an accurate account of the total number of Jews that were murdered,
despite the meticulous records kept by the Germans. Many Jewish survivors immigrated to Palestine and founded the state of Israel and created a new country in the desert, surrounded by hostile Arabs. Others would come to Canada and the United States to start a new life and begin new families. The Jews that remained in Europe were so few in number with most synagogues destroyed and families decimated. Warsaw, before the war, had several hundred thousand Jews-after the war, there were only 5000 survivors! Jewish culture and a way of life in Europe was forever affected by the Holocaust!
Most likely because they were experiencing genocide, lost half their population and for some time after many Jewish people from Germany had no country.

During the Holocaust 6.85 Million Jews were killed during World War 2. Global Population of Jews by 1933 was Around 16 Million. So 6.85 Million/16 Million = 42.8%. It has been agreed that between 40% and 45% of the Global Jewish Population were killed during World War 2. So 4.2 in every 10 Jews were killed during World War 2 and the Holocaust.
