From Wikipedia, uncited:
"The original name of the town was Richmond Courthouse. In 1830 the town's name changed to Warsaw. A number of other small towns in the United States changed their names to Warsaw at this time (Warsaw, Kentucky for instance), all as a result of sympathy in the United States for the November Uprising in Poland. Because Richmond Courthouse was still unincorporated in 1830, it is unclear who was responsible for the change of name to Warsaw."

In 1940 the Nazis designated an area of Warsaw as the ghetto (Jewish quarter). All non-Jewish Poles were ordered out of the area, and all Warsaw Jews were ordered into the area. It was then surrounded by high walls and patrolled ... It was a death trap.

The question is a bit vague. It was the home of Warsaw's Jewish population and when the Nazis decided to send them to the camps, they targetted the Ghetto.
The first attempt to set up a ghetto had been made by the SS in November 1939. In mid-November 1940 the Jewish ghetto in Warsaw was sealed off by a high wall. The Nazis did not use the term ghetto, but referred to the area as Jüdischer Wohnbezirk meaning Jewish Quarter.
The Nazis ultimately contrilled it, but they made a Jewish council run it.
The Warsaw ghetto was the largest ghetto in Poland. More than 400,000 Jewish people were shoved into 1.3 square miles. It was centered in the Polish capital, located in Nazi occupied Europe.
Warsaw Ghetto was created in 1940.
