What effort were made to save the Jews fleeing from Germany before World War 2 Began?

There was no co-ordinated international effort. Many countries accepted some refugees from Nazi Germany. However, in view of the Great Depression there was a reluctance to accept large numbers, and Immigration controls were very strict. The following figures are often quoted for the total number of refugees from Nazi Germany, Austria and the Czech lands in the period 1933-39 (or in 1933-41 in the case of the US and the Soviet Union). These figures have been rounded and include political refugees: * US - 250,000 * Britain - 71,000 * Australia - 50,000 * Argentina - 50,000 * Canada - 8,000 * Soviet Union - 250,000 (This includes a large number of political refugees and also refugees from Nazi occupied Poland) * Shanghai City (under Japanese rule) - 25,000 (includes refugees from Poland and Lithuania) Many countries, such as New Zealand and Turkey accepted fewer than 1,000 each.

Was Nicholas Copernicus a Greek astronomer?

no nicholus was not a greek astronomer for it was that he is from poland< not greece> He was born in Poland, of parents who were both Polish. He grew up in Poland, was educated in Polish universities, lived almost his entire life in Poland, published all of his important works while in Poland, and died in Poland. Because of these facts, most people consider him Polish, not Greek. Incidentally, he was a true renaissance person, with his astronomical work occupying a very small amount of his time.
