Kristallnacht is translated from German into "night of broken glass," which is fitting. Kristallnacht was when Nazis ran through towns smashing windows of German businesses and shops and setting fire to those businesses.

A Polish Jew named Herschel Grynszpan. He assassinated a Nazi politician, and the Nazis used it as reason to attack the Jews - Grynszpan made the Jews look dangerous.
