Adolf Hitler was in prison for trying to take over German Government and while he was in there he wrote a book. The book was called "Mein Kaumf", which described his struggle and how he felt the German Government should be ran. After Hitler got out from his short sentance in prison, many people had already read his book which created his power. Hitler felt that Jews were the main problem for all of Germanys struggles and down fall. In 1935 the Nuremberg laws were created. The Nuremberg laws pretty much stripped the Jews of there citizenship. In 1936 the Nuremberg laws slowed down because of the Olympic Games which were being held in Berlin. The reason for them slowing down was becuase with all of the poeple there to watch the games, Germany wanted to look strong and he also wanted to give the Jews false hope.

Once the Holocaust stared to get even worse, the Nazis would go around arrest any Jews or anyone else on the "Undesirable List". The list consisted of Jews, communists, Gypsies, homosexuals, blacks, and acouple others. The Nazis could tell you were Jewish by your last name. They could also look at your birth cirtificate. When a Jewish person or anyone else on the "Undesirable List" were caught they would have taken you to a prison camp or even shot you right on the spot. When you were at a camp, depending on how old you were and your health determined what happened to you.

All of this is information about the horror of the Holocaust which was all caused by mainly one person. When we learn about the Holocaust, it teaches us about tolerance. The world that we live in today is very diverse, and no one is the same. You can't judge people by what they believe or what color there skin is and that is why toleracne needs to be taught. Another reason we learn about the Holocaust is becuase it will teach us not to act like what the Nazis acted like and teach us not to believe in what the Nazis believed in. In the end of the Holocuast there were over 15,000 camps the Nazis used and over eleven million Jews and people on the undesirable list were killed. In conclusion if we were to not learn about the Holocaust wwe might just forget about the innocent lives lost and there possibly, something just like the Holocaust could happen again.

Everybody is the same in some way, but they are also different; and people should repsect that. Just because they are different does not mean they should be blamed or singled out either.

The Holocaust was controlled by the Nazis, who were under the strict and demanding power of Adolf Hitler. This evil man had ideas of being the biggest and most powerful empire in the world. He wanted this empire to be dominated by a primary race, Aryan. When you put all these things together, you get The Holocaust. The Holocaust was a gigantic event that took place in multiple countries. Do you really think an event that large could take its course in just a couple of weeks? Of course not. Hitler was not only evil, but he was also smart. He used propaganda to publicly discriminate the Jews until the civilians thought of the Jewish people as a lesser race. Now that he had the community in that mindset, Hitler could take control of the Jews for the rest of their lives without anybody trying to stop them.
