Answer 1

- Rwandan Genocide, 1994

- Srebrenica Massacre, 1995

Stalin under the Soviet Union, mid 21 century

___

The other close parallel is the Armenian Holocaust 1915-1917.

Answer 2

Yes, and there still are. Jew had been forced into ghettos time immemorial, and of course genocides have been happening all over the world. For instance, the Hutus and the Tutsis in Africa tried to wipe each other out many times, and of course in Darfur, Sudan the Arabs are slaughtering the blacks.

Answer 3

None, not on the same scale anyway.

The Jewish Holocaust is only the most popular one, but there are a lot of other events in history where large groups of people have been systematically killed. The Holocaust is special because of the short period of time, cruelty and the media coverage it later received.

But there are other peoples that have suffered tortures, killings, destructions, some even today.

Answer 4

Yes, other examples include:

• The Ottoman Turkish genocide of the Armenians in 1915-1917, but the Turkish government vehemently denies that there was any genocide at the time.
• The Rwanda Genocide of 1994.

Answer 5

Yes, there gave been several instances of genocide in history. The case that is most obviously comparable to the Holocaust is the systematic massacre of the Armenians by the Ottoman Turks in 1915-17. An estimated 1.2 million Armenians were killed.

Some Jews insist on the 'uniqueness' of the Holocaust, but this view is disputed.

Answer 6

• Yes to a similar degree and you would think humans would learn from the terrible events of the holocaust. The Congo is the worst and Africa is called "the forgotten country." There is no one to come in to help and it's probably because there is nothing other countries want from Africa. There are many other countries that rule by an iron fist and people being slaughtered every day.

Answer 7

Armenia has been genocided around 4 times by the Ottoman Empire (Turkey), and that is very similar to the Holocaust, but with less, but more violent deaths.
