Racial discrimination against Jews in lands controlled by the Nazis was not only rampant, but supported by the government. After repeated and prolonged harassment and abuse from the Nazis, Jews were piled into trains by the thousands and sent to concentration camps. As Jews were forced into the camps, they were stripped of their belongings, and clothes. Wedding bands were wrung from their hands, and even gold teeth were pulled from their mouths. These valuables, were taken by the Nazis. But are nothing compared to the humanity and innocence taken from the Jewish people. The Holocaust remains one of the darkest moments in Human history. These atrocities shaped an entire generation of the Jewish people. This event illustrates the animosity and the hate held by the Nazis towards the Jewish people, as well as mans capability to do evil. Forever burned into history. The Holocaust and its 11 million+ deaths will never be forgotten, and the persons involved will be embedded into Humanities memory.

This was a fundamental problem that lay behind the ultimate outbreak of the Great War (as World War I was called at the time it occurred).
