Concentration camps were established in 1933 and were primarily for political prisoners. Extermination camps were first established in 1941 and were for groups that the Nazis wanted to exterminate completely - Jews and 'gypsies'.
From late 1944 onwards some Jews were transferred from the more easterly camps, especially Auschwitz, to ordinary concentration camps and the distinction became somewhat blurred.
