It means that the population of Germany and Poland knew for the most part about the Holocaust but turned their heads and did nothing to prevent the genocide (paved with indifference)
----------------------
It is a metaphor: it means that though the initial work was done by hatred, this was but a small part, it took indifference to create the final product (the Holocaust). It means to say that whilst most of the people did not protest, a minority could do what they wanted.
Auschwitz is used here to mean the Holocaust, not the actual place.
The Romans built stone paved roads, but this improvement in transport was probably used before, soon after wheeled transport became common. The Inca of South America were another peoples who used stone paved roads. And also extensive stone paved footpaths over long distances and undulating terrain.
The first indications of constructed roads date from about 4000 BC and consist of stone paved streets at Ur in modern-day Iraq and timber roads preserved in a swamp in Glastonbury, England.
The Romans road are famous because they were paved. This had a military purpose. Their roads were not paved from the beginning. The first paved road, the Appian way, was built in 312 BC to speed up movement of troops to the front in the Second Samnite War. They also made the movement of supplies to the troops at the front or in garrisons easier and quicker.
The Romans introduced paved roads.The paved roads had a military purpose. The first paved road (the famous Appian Way) was built in 312 BC to speed up the movement of troops to the front of the Second Samnite War, which the Romans were fighting near Naples. Paved roads also made the transport of supplies to the troops at the front of in garrisons. Over the centuries the Romans built 80,500 kilometres of paved roads around the Roman Empire; 29 great military paved roads radiated from the city of Rome. The paved roads also saw civilian use and made trade and travel easier.

It is unknown who came up with the idea to pave roads with concrete. The first concrete paved road was built in 1909 and was Woodward Avenue in Detroit, Michigan.
Unpaved roads existed long before the Romans and also during Roman times. Rome's innovation was the paved roads. The first paved road was the famous Appian way which was built in 312 BC. The paved roads were built for military purposes. They speeded up the movement of troops and made the transport of supplies to the troops at the front or in stationed in garrisons quicker and easier.

Yes, the Aztecs built a sophisticated network of paved roads known as canals in their capital city of Tenochtitlan. These canals connected various parts of the city and were used for transportation of goods and people by canoes.
Woodward Avenue may have been the first road paved with CONCRETE in the US. That occurred in 1909. The earliest paved roads in the US date at least to the 1820s. Most US cities had paved roads by the 1880s and 90s. The oldest KNOWN paved road is a 7 1/2 mile route in Egypt, not far from Cairo. It was built 4,600 years ago. The 2nd oldest is in Ur, in Iraq, at least 4,000 years old.
