The Holocaust stands as an immutable proof to the Jewish People that any safety and security that they may have among non-Jews is illusory and only as strong as current politics allow. Prior to 1930, Germany was one of the most tolerant and Jew-friendly places in the world. Jews served in the German armies as early as the German-Danish Wars. Jews worked in German businesses. Jews and Germans interacted to an incredibly high degree. However, the Holocaust began in Germany and not in a place like Russia where Jews had been historically persecuted. The main result of this truth has been the acquiescence of most of the Jewish community to the idea of Zionism; that Jews have the right to govern themselves.
*It is worth noting that Jews who disagree with Zionism do not argue with the "not safe among non-Jews" argument, but the secondary premise that Jews should do something to improve their situation. They see the persecution as punishment for their ancestors' having refused to be pious and keep the Torah.
- Answer 2 Non-Zionist answer
This holds true outside Israel and in Israel as well, so Zionism is irrelevant to the subject. Israeli Jews are safe only by God's grace; and He has sent them periodic reminders of this inescapable truth.
Note that this Answer should not be misconstrued as approval for what the Nazis did.

Why it was used as a term to encapsulate the entire Holocaust. Who pays for it to be maintained. As it stands; who is it for? These are in my opinion the ten most important things, obviously there are a multitude of bits of information and figures all included within its history and picking the ten most important out of those will be highly subjective.
