Question: In addition to stars and colored uniforms what did the Germans do to identify prisoners in concentration camps?

Answer: Germans usually used the following to identify prisoners in concentration camps:

  • <u>Identification numbers marked on clothing.</u>
  • <u>Identification numbers tattooed on the skin.  </u>
  • <u>Concentration camp badges on the clothing.</u>
  • <u>Armbands.</u>

Explanation:

  • <em>Identification numbers marked on clothing.</em>

Initially, in Auschwitz, the camp numbers were sewn on the clothes for identifying prisoners.

  • <em>Identification numbers tattooed on the skin.  </em>

Since the death rates increased, it wasn't easy to identify corpses, due to the removal of clothes from corpses. To solve this problem, medical personnel started to write the numbers on the corpses' chests with indelible ink. Later on, tattoos were applied to them. The identification numbers were tattooed on the upper left part of the breast.

  • <em>Concentration camp badges on the clothing.</em>

The badges were colored inverted triangles, sewn on jackets and shirts. These badges had specific meanings and helped to identify the reason the prisoners had been placed there. Based on the badges, guards assigned tasks suitable for each prisoner. For example, if someone  had an "escape suspect" badge, they wouldn't be assigned to work outside the camp fence.

  • Armbands.

Armbands were only used by detainees who were sent to perform forced labor in factories outside the camps.

The correct options are:

  • military dictatorships
  • rebellions and insurgencies
  • high rates of poverty

After gaining its independence, the young nation faced several problems: the country had to be rebuilt from the ravages of war and reach an agreement with several Japanese collaborators and entrepreneurs to begin their economic development. Meanwhile, the Hukbalahap, a rebel communist army that previously fought against the Japanese, remained active in rural areas. Finally, this threat was addressed by the Secretary of National Defense and later president Ramón Magsaysay, although some sporadic cases of communist insurgency continued to be presented. In 1965, Ferdinand Marcos was elected president, with his wife Imelda Marcos at his side. As the Constitution forbade being re-elected more than twice for the presidential office, at the end of his second term he declared martial law on September 21, 1972. To continue governing by decree, he used as arguments the political division, the tension of the War Cold and the specter of the communist rebellion and the Islamic insurgency in the country. Thus began a dictatorship that lasted more than ten years and was characterized by strict control of the economy and political repression.

The return of democracy and reforms to the government after the events of 1986 were hampered by the national debt, corruption, coup attempts, a persistent Communist insurgency and Islamic separatist movements. Although the economy improved during the administration of Fidel V. Ramos, who was elected president in 1992, the start of the 1997 Asian financial crisis halted these advances.
