What is the difference between a transit camp and a ghetto during the Holocaust?

When Hitler gained he enforced strict laws on Jews that just kept getting harsher and harsher. Ghettos were usally a sectioned of area in a major city suronded by barbed wire fences and gaurded by Nazis. Ghettos were the place were all the Jews and other undesireables being persecuted by Hitler were sent. These places were impoverished and filthy. People lived and worked in the ghettos but many were forced to do cruel jobs ebforced by the Nazis. When the ghettos got to full the Jews were rounded up and sent to concentration camps. Before the Jews were sent to the concentration camps they were sent to transit camps. Transit camps were where Jews stayed until they were sent to the concentration camp. It was sort of a sorting ground like some may have been sent to Auschwitz well others were sent to Birkenau. Transit camps were similar to concentration camps but the conditions were significanty better.

What were the different types of camps in World War 2?

== == The following are the types of camps that were used in the Holocaust: * "Concentration camps" is the generic term for the prison camps maintained by the Third Reich. * "Labor camps" were those that were maintained for the purpose of exploiting slave labor. * "Extermination camps" were six camps located in Poland where the mass murder of Jews and others took place. Many of the concentration camps were complexes of several camps and some had dual functions. At the Auschwitz complex, for example, most of the genocide took place in a subcamp called Birkenau. There was also a labor camp named Monowitz that was part of the complex where an artificial rubber plant was built. Likewise, Treblinka, another extermination camp, was part of a complex of three camps, two of which were used for slave labor.
