People with a Polish background were often sent to both Nazi concentration camps and Soviet labor camps. Both Germany and the Soviet Union wanted control of Poland.
Satellite camps during World War II were smaller, often temporary labor camps established near larger concentration camps. They were used primarily to exploit forced labor from inmates for various industries, including agriculture, construction, and manufacturing. These satellite camps allowed the Nazi regime to extend their labor exploitation while managing the logistical challenges of housing large numbers of prisoners. Many satellite camps operated under brutal conditions, contributing to the overall suffering and mortality of the inmates.
Concentration camps were used for forced prison labor, while extermination camps were built to kill all prisoners.
Concentration camps were designed primarily for the detention of political prisoners, forced labor, and the imprisonment of various targeted groups, often under brutal conditions characterized by overcrowding, inadequate food, and poor sanitation. In contrast, extermination camps were specifically built for mass murder, employing gas chambers and other means to systematically kill large numbers of people, primarily Jews during the Holocaust. While both types of camps were horrific, extermination camps had a singular focus on extermination, whereas concentration camps also involved forced labor and imprisonment with the intent to exploit rather than immediately kill.

Concentration camps and labor camps are both types of detention facilities, but they serve different purposes. Concentration camps are primarily used for the internment of specific groups of people based on their ethnicity, religion, or political beliefs, with the goal of persecution and extermination. Labor camps, on the other hand, are intended for forced labor and often used for economic exploitation, with detainees being forced to work under harsh conditions for the benefit of the detaining authority. While both types of camps involve human rights abuses, the key distinction lies in their primary objectives: persecution in concentration camps and forced labor in labor camps.
Yes, by 1949, North Korea had established concentration camps, known as political prison camps or gulags, for the detention of perceived political enemies and dissidents. These camps were part of the broader repressive regime under Kim Il-sung, aimed at consolidating power and eliminating opposition. The conditions in these camps were often brutal, with forced labor, starvation, and severe punishment for inmates. The legacy of these camps continues to impact North Korean society today.

No. Historians distiguish between #1 extermination campsand #2 ordinary concentration camps. The extermination camps were killing centres and served no other function and had very few survivors. Conditions at concentration camps varied and many inmates survived.Please see the related question.
