The Holocaust originated in Germany, with the first official concentration camp opened at Dachau (near Munich) in March 1933. From 1933-1939, the Nazis undertook an "Aryanization" of Germany, dismissing non-Aryans from civil service, liquidating Jewish-owned businesses and stripping Jewish lawyers and doctors of their clients.
The general idea behind the Holocaust was ethnic cleansing. Hitler hoped to create a perfect race by eliminating those who did not fit his idea of perfection.
It was too big.

The invasion of Poland came first. The genocide followed later. ------------------------------ The real question would be: Did the Holocaust or the invasion of the Soviet Union come first? or rather: Did the Holocaust cause the invasion of the Soviet Union or did the invasion of the Soviet Union cause the Holocaust? (because there is no clear answer)
Holocaust victim usually refers to people who were killed in the Holocaust, so it is not clear who you are referring to: refugees from Nazi Germany? Holocaust survivors? Both groups? I imagine that the main library in Houston or the municipal archives would have a good idea.

The 'majority of the people' were not asked or even informed about the Holocaust.
The term the Holocaust only came into widespread use in the late 1970s after the showing of the TV miniseries with that title.
Hopefully never again.
Yes.
yes Hitler thought the holocaust was a good idea because then that way he could get rid of the whole race he was trying to get rid of in the first place but in a faster and easier way.
