It was the expansion camp, it was where most of the inmates were held, it was also the location for most of the gas chambers.

Auschwitz was a extermination camp, unlike other camps, people were brought there solely for the purpose to be exterminated, not to work.
At death camps, most of them were killed at Auchwitz and some others were just killed on the spot with guns
Because if they didn't, they would be severely punished through beatings, fines, jail time, and eventually deportation to an interment camp such as Auchwitz.
The unimaginable was simply that: Sure it was known that the Nazis didn't like he Jews & others they saw as undesirable. But what was to take place in Auchwitz & such places was simply beyond the concept of anyone......
the Boy in the Striped Pajamas is a fictional story that takes place in Auchwitz concentration camp in Poland. the film is about a boy affected by the holocaust, so there isn't a specific difference.
At first the plan was to simply relocate the Jews, however that was expensive and not really practical. When the "final solution" was implemented, the plan changed to exterminating them and the camps themselves were changed to suit that purpose Auchwitz for example had train tracks routed directly to the entrence for expediency.
