Where did the prisoners go after World War 2?
Most prisoners, I think, were allowed to return to civilian life in their respective countries. However, some prisoners, especially in Russia, were detained for most--or all--of their lives.

How were the German prisoners of war treated?
By and large, the U.S. and U.K. treated Germans in compliance with the Geneva Conventions. By and large, the Germans treated U.S. and U.K. prisoners with at least minimal decency, allowed ICRC inspections, mail, and packages.

The Soviets killed and imprisoned for years after the war many thousands of Japanese POWs. The Japanese were monstrous, murdering many U.K., Australian, Filipino, and U.S. POWs and a large proportion of the Chinese prisoners they took. The Americans and Australians bombed and strafed many of the by-passed Japanese troops in the South Pacific and other areas. Many starved, turned cannibal and died of disease. The Americans took very few Japanese POWs. The tales told by U.S. Marines are ghastly. The Chinese killed many of the Jaoanese POWs that they took. and and mistrated many of the Japanese pri

In WW2, not a lot of people liked the germans, especially POW's (Prisoners Of War) and prisoners of concentration camp. Hitler made a big mistake by turning around to attack russia when the germans and the russians had a pact or agreement not to attack each other. I think people were kind of scared about Germany's division from Europe in ww2 because the Germans had a strong military.

They killed a lot of them, many were shot or starved, but the thing that killed most of the prisoners was the death marches that the prisoners were forced to undertake.
