Answer 2

With the exception of Western-leaning states in the second half of the nineteenth century and parts of the twentieth, Jews faced persecution everywhere they lived. In most like the various European States, the Arab World, and the Turkish Sultanates this was legal persecution where Jews had fewer privileges or rights, had additional taxes, could only live in certain areas, could only work in certain professions, were slandered with impunity by both the government and private citizens, etc. In other places, like the United States, the discrimination was "understood" but illegal on its face such as being rejected from institutions of higher learning, being denied jobs that they were fully qualified for, being prevented from living in districts, etc.

This is all without discussing all of the government-led, orchestrated, or supported acts of violence, murder, and genocide perpetrated against the Jews.

Answer 3

The purpose was to murder 6 million Jews of Europe and to remove the disabled, gay, and elderly as well as any dissenting people. In 1933 approximately 9.5 million Jews lived in Europe comprising 1.7% of the total European population. This number represents more than 60% of the World's Jewish population at that time of an estimated 15.3 million. The majority of Jews in prewar Europe lived in Eastern Europe. The largest was Poland with about 3,000,000 Jews. In Central Europe the largest Jewish population was in Germany with about 525,000 people and Western Europe the largest population was in Great Britain with 300,000. Before the Nazi seizure in 1933 Europe had a diverse set of Jewish cultures. In less than a decade two out of every three Jews would be dead.
