In terms of numbers, Jews were the largest single group killed in the Holocaust. However, many other groups were persecuted and murdered too. The first to be systematically murdered, before the establishment of the camps, were the disabled and mentally ill. Other groups to join Jews in the camps included homosexuals, Roma, Sinti, Jehova's Witnesses, Catholic and other Priests, Communists, Socialists, Trade Unionists, Anarchists, Pacifists, People of Colour, criminals, POWs and various Eastern European nationalities, including Poles, Slavs and others. Basically, anyone the Nazis considered racially impure, genetically inferior, a burden on society or a threat to the Nazi Party.

∙ 9y agoIt was mostly Jewish people that was killed. However, different minorities feel victimised during the Holocaust. Some included disabled people, POWs, Black people and Homosexuals. Around 55% of all deaths in the Holocaust not including the actual war were Jews alone.
