What is the deliberate killing of an entire group of people or nation?
Genocide While the technical term is genocide, it is also sometimes referred to as "ethnic cleansing" when a group of people (usually rebels), and sometimes even that country's government, kills groups of people simply because of their race, origin, nationality, etc., in order to take over a certain area.
How many genocides have been successfully prosecuted?
As of October 2023, there have been relatively few successful prosecutions for genocide. The most notable cases occurred at international tribunals, such as the International Criminal Tribunal for Rwanda (ICTR), which convicted several key figures involved in the 1994 Rwandan genocide. Additionally, the International Criminal Court (ICC) has also pursued cases involving genocide, but successful prosecutions remain limited due to various political and legal challenges. Overall, while there have been some convictions, the number of successful prosecutions for genocide is still quite low compared to the instances of genocide that have occurred.
Do people who commit genocide enjoy it?
While there are certainly psychopaths and sociopaths who are involved in and "enjoy" genocides, most people who become embroiled in genocide are motivated much more by a sense of duty or purpose. Most people who commit genocide see the mass murder no differently than you might see the elimination of a rodent problem in your house. It is a less-than-glamorous task that simply needs to be done for the betterment of the group responsible for the genocide. This is mirrored by the propaganda that often accompanies the genocide, painting the victims as parasites or vermin.

Genocide refers to the hunting and killing of people based on specific criteria, which can take place over longer amounts of time.

Do Holocaust or genocides still exist today or in the recent past?
While Historians disagree about the precise definition of Genocide; a legal definition can be found in The United Nations Convention on the Prevention and Punishment of the Crime of Genocide, 1948. "Any of the following acts committed with intent to destroy, in whole or in part, a national, ethnical, racial or religious , group, as such: killing members of the group; causing serious bodily or mental harm to members of the group; deliberately inflicting on the group conditions of life, calculated to bring about its physical destruction in whole or in part; imposing measures intended to prevent births within the group; and forcibly transferring children of the group to another group." Since the convention was adopted, several instances of genocide have fallen under its ambit, including The Holocaust (a term which is usually specifically used to describe Nazi Germany's action against Jews and others in World War 2), The Rwandan Genocide of 1994, and The Bosnian Genocide of 1995. There are other conflicts in the world which some people may characterise as genocide and may, in future, be classified as such by The United Nations. See link for information on Raphael Lemkin, the man who coined the word genocide in 1943.
