How many prisoners were held in the Camps ? What type of work did they do?

1 answer:

7 0

Answer: The use of forced labour first began to grow significantly in 1937, as rearmament caused labour shortages. Following the outbreak of the Second World War, the use of labour again increased sharply.

The invasion of the Soviet Union in June 1941 further heightened demands on the war economy, and in turn, for labour. At the same time, this invasion brought thousands of potential new workers under Nazi control. These prisoners were called Ostarbeiter (eastern workers) and Fremdarbeiter (foreign workers). The Nazis deported these people to forced labour camps, where they worked to produce supplies for the increasingly strained war economy or in construction efforts.

Why is it inaccurate to say the roman empire "fell" ?

wariber [46]

Answer:

Ok please dont say that my answer was wrong but this is what from I think:

I think that it was offensive to them to say that it FELL since they are royal in their own ways and they probably like it as if it were said to be : "fallen"? They probably don't like admitting defeat so they try to make it present or like really cool in their own ways. DISCLAIMER: WHAT I THINK!!!
