Gypsies, also known as the Romani people, have a distinct culture and history that sets them apart. They have traditionally been a nomadic group, with their own language and customs. Discrimination and marginalization have also played a role in shaping their distinct identity.

Who were gypsies and why were they persecuted by the Nazis?

Gypsies were a group of people who originated from India and were the true Aryans. There was nothing in Nazi ideology that had anything against the gypsies. Himmler established academic institutions and provided grants for investigations into gypsies. When the rounding up of the Jews occurred, Himmler used this as a way to round up the gypsies also, his intention was to keep the racially pure gypsies (which was about 2%) and exterminate the rest, he also gave different treatment to different types of gypsy, for example he left the Sinti alone until the end of the war when he made the blanket decision to exterminate them all. (there are more ways in which there was differing treatment, this is just the short answer)
