The Holocaust was the systematic annihilation of six million Jews by the Nazis during World War 2. In 1933 nine million Jews lived in the 21 countries of Europe that would be military occupied by Germany during the war. By 1945 two out of every three European Jews had been killed. 1.5 million children were murdered. This figure includes more than 1.2 million Jewish children, tens of thousands of Gypsy children and thousands of handicapped children.

Basically Adolf Hitler gained power of the people by giving amazing, moving speeches. He earned the trust of the Germans and used them as pawns to create his own utopia where there were no Jews. He thought of Jews as dirty and a waste.
