New religious sects were on the rise in Europe. In England, William Penn attended Oxford where he joined the Society of Friends (Quakers). These new sects were treated badly, and the Quakers received the worst treatment of all. They were thrown in prison for refusing to obey any law that disrupted their religion and they refused to pay to support the state religion. The only way to escape such treatment was to go to America. William Penn's father was an Admiral and King Charles II had owed him a sum of money. Admiral Penn was dead so William Penn asked King Charles II give him a tract of land in payment of the debt. King Charles II granted him much of present-day Pennsylvania, Delaware and New Jersey.

Hitler was popular among his people because not only were they looking for a scapegoat to blame for their problems, but because in their eyes he was fixing Germany’s problems and making her into a powerful nation once more. Schools should cover the Holocaust so that the children of today can learn from the mistakes of yesteryears, and prevent such from happening again in our times. We can prevent such from happening again from teaching children the mistakes that lead to the genocide of ~6 million people, like the acceptance of violence and discrimination, the political manipulation of anger, scapegoating, and the unchecked thrive if the extreme far-right. Some people could deny the Holocaust because they can’t comprehend the scale, that six million people could be slaughtered in just a few years, or that they outright refuse to accept the facts for what they are. Yes, I believe that the Nazi soldiers were rightly arrested and charged for their war crimes, even though they were “only following their orders”. They could have easily refused such roles or refuse to follow their orders, but they chose to save themselves from their own death by allowing the deaths of six million people. People such as Oskar Schindler and Major Karl Plagge show that they did not have to blindly follow their orders, that they could use their morals and conscience to see what they were doing was horrible and inhuman.
