In Germany, Jews had had full citizenship from 1871 on, and in practice they had enjoyed much the same rights as other Germans since about 1850. In some German states, especially Prussia, they had had something approaching full citizenship since 1812.

Obviously, there was discrimination in practice is some areas. For example, in Germany up to about 1900 a Jew's chances of becoming an army officer were practically nil. However, in most of the German states the period from about 1830-1933 was one in which the Jews flourished.

What was life for Jewish people before the holocaust?

Before the Holocaust, Jews faced persecution in much of the world, just not as bad as the Nazi persecution. Persecution was intense in Russia (both under the Tzars and the Communists). In Western Europe and the United States, Jews enjoyed relatively civil treatment, with many of the rights of citizenship, although there was still considerable legal discrimination against Jews even in the United States. Jews in Arab lands had second-class citizenship, although sometimes this allowed a comfortable existence comparable to that of European Jews. 200 years before the Holocaust, the Spanish Inquisition was still actively persecuting crypto-Jews, sometimes burning them at the stake, and Jews had no secure rights of citizenship in any country.
