There were 1800 Roman Catholics classifed by the Nazis as Jews in the Warsaw ghetto, i will return if i find out where they (and how many in which place) died. It is most likely that most of them died in Treblinka rather than the ghetto.
When it was sealed off the Warsaw Ghetto had about 450,000 inhabitants.
Initially just over 300 000, then through deportations and adding people from the surrounding areas it grew and at its peak there were about 440,000.
not many, there were not soldiers in the ghetto, unless they were sent on a task. There were Nazi guards on the gates, so it will be about a gross or two.

About 150 000.

When it was founded in 1940, 400,000 Jews were herded into the cramped ghetto. About 100,000 died in the ghetto from disease or starvation; many more were shipped off to various concentration and death camps.
Warsaw is in Poland.
Of course- there were many, actually. Most fights were over life and death, food, medicine, and warmth. The most famous of the fights was the Warsaw Ghetto Uprising, which was when many Jews in the Warsaw Ghetto gained access to the weapons armory and took aim upon the Nazis guarding the ghetto outside the camp.
The Nazis forced the Jews in Poland (and in many other countries that they occupied) to live ghettos - that is, in specifically Jewish districts, which were then sealed off from the surrounding area with high wall, barbed wire and patrols. Non-Jews had to leave the area. The Warsaw Ghetto was sealed off on 16 November 1940 and was almost completely destroyed during the suppression of the Warsaw Ghetto Uprising in April 1943.Please see links and related questions.

The Jews were forced to build a wall. This was done so the Jews could not escape until the Germans could send them to concentration camps. Many were sent to Treblinka for extermination.
