During the era of the Holocaust, German authorities also targeted other groups because of their perceived "racial inferiority": Roma (Gypsies), the disabled, and some of the Slavic peoples (Poles, Russians, and others). Other groups were persecuted on political, ideological, and behavioral grounds, among them Communists, Socialists, Jehovah's Witnesses, and Homosexuals.
Roma is the Italian name for Rome, the capital of Italy. __ It is also the word used for gypsies.The Roma people are also known as gypsies.Roma is also the Italian name for the city of Rome.
The Jewish, Roma (Gypsies), the disabled, some of the Slavic peoples (Poles, Russians, and others), Communists, Socialists, Jehovah's Witnesses, and homosexuals.
Jews, Roma (gypsies), homosexuals, the mentally and physically disabled, and Slavic peoples were all brutally treated in Hitler's final solution. Other groups including the poor, 'promiscuous women,' and Russian POW's were dealt with harshly as well.
First there were many, many, many more than just three groups that were targeted by Hitler's genocide. Those groups that are the most well know are the Jews, The physically and mentally disabled, and the Gypsies or their proper name the Roma.
Jews, Roma/Sinti ('gypsies'). Communists. Socialists. Liberals. Other dissidents; Incurables, Gays, Jehova's Witnesses;
Many groups of Roma did/do not necessarily pass along surnames, instead taking on surnames (for legal purposes) that fit in with the people among whom they live.
Bulgarians, Turks (Turkish-speaking Bulgarians), Roma-speaking Gyspsies. These three are major ethnic groups (Bulgarians are the biggest). There are small minorities of Jews, Armenian and Greeks.
Jewish people were the main target of the Holocaust although there were other groups of people that were victims of the Nazi. The other types of people that were non Jewish in the resistance were Gypsies from Sinti and Roma, Soviet prisoners of war, homosexuals, and resistance fighters from Europe. It is worth noting that there is no such thing as the "Non-Jewish Resistance" as all of the various resistance groups were identified by their unifying element, i.e. the Yugoslav Resistance, French Resistance, Russian Partisans, etc. As for who fought in resistance groups other than the Jews, you had individuals from nearly all of the occupied countries fighting in nationalist organized groups and you had some ethnically motivated groups. However, most of the Non-Jewish victim groups (such as Roma, Soviet POWs, homosexuals, etc.) were not able to effectively coalesce into resistance group.
The Nazis targeted various groups during their rule in Germany from 1933 to 1945. These groups included Jews, Roma and Sinti people, disabled individuals, LGBTQ+ individuals, political dissidents, Jehovah's Witnesses, Poles, Slavs, and other ethnic minorities. The Nazis aimed to eliminate or oppress these groups based on their ideology of racial purity and superiority.
Bulgarian, Turkish descent Muslim Bulgarian, Armenian, Roma (gypsy) people and other very minute ethnic groups like greeks, azeri etc.
The Roma/Sinti gypsies are usually mentioned. Many of the other groups are also mentioned - Jehovah's Witnesses, homosexuals, incurables. Soviet prisoners of war sometimes get a mention, too.
Slavs and to some degree negroes. Depending on whether you consider them ethnic groups or religious groups: Jews, Roma. __________ Actually, the bit about Slavs needs qualifying. If they did the Nazis' bidding and were 'Western' in outlook and Roman Catholic, they were not persecuted. For example, Slovakia and Croatia were allies of Nazi Germany.
There is a small Roma community in Australia, but they prefer to be identified as Romani people rather than Gypsies. Romani Australians have a rich cultural heritage and face challenges similar to other minority groups.
