Explanation:
Answer: hough the Nazis tried to keep operation of camps secret, the scale of the killing made this virtually impossible. Eyewitnesses brought reports of Nazi atrocities in Poland to the Allied governments, who were harshly criticized after the war for their failure to respond, or to publicize news of the mass slaughter. This lack of action was likely mostly due to the Allied focus on winning the war at hand, but was also a result of the general incomprehension with which news of the Holocaust was met and the denial and disbelief that such atrocities could be occurring on such a scale.
At Auschwitz alone, more than 2 million people were murdered in a process resembling a large-scale industrial operation. A large population of Jewish and non-Jewish inmates worked in the labor camp there; though only Jews were gassed, thousands of others died of starvation or disease. And in 1943, eugenicist Josef Mengele arrived in Auschwitz to begin his infamous experiments on Jewish prisoners. His special area of focus was conducting medical experiments on twins, injecting them with everything from petrol to chloroform under the guise of giving them medical treatment. His actions earned him the nickname “the Angel of Death.”
Nazi Rule Comes to an End, as Holocaust Continues to Claim Lives, 1945
By the spring of 1945, German leadership was dissolving amid internal dissent, with Goering and Himmler both seeking to distance themselves from Hitler and take power. In his last will and political testament, dictated in a German bunker that April 29, Hitler blamed the war on “International Jewry and its helpers” and urged the German leaders and people to follow “the strict observance of the racial laws and with merciless resistance against the universal poisoners of all peoples”–the Jews. The following day, Hitler killed himself . Germany’s formal surrender in World War II came barely a week later, on May 8, 1945.
German forces had begun evacuating many of the h camps in the fall of 1944, sending inmates under guard to march further from the advancing enemy’s front line. These so-called “death marches” continued all the way up to the German surrender, resulting in the deaths of some 250,00 to 375,000

Answer:
C. The excuse ‘you all did it too’ would not be a valid excuse for crimes against humanity.
D. Individuals can be held responsible for their actions, and cannot claim they were following their superior leadership orders.
Explanation:
With the Nuremberg Trials, several principles that were arranged prior to them started off. The Intentional Military Tribunal was formed, setting rules as to what, how, and who can and should be charged for war crimes against the humanity. Two of the basic principles that were established were that excuses/defenses from the type of ''you all did it too'' will not be accepted as valid, and that every individual can be charged for war crimes, despite claims of orders from their superiors.
1). The caste or group that made up the largest proportion of the population was considered to be "the general category".
2). The castes or groups that made up the smallest proportion were considered to be from disadvantaged backgrounds and underrepresented in India. In modern times, they would refer to the Dalits, an official term used for those experiencing discrimination or untouchability. While percentage-wise they may have been a minority, they have still faced persecution and marginalization throughout history. It is believed that this contributed to their lack of representation during the pre-independence period as well as their continued disadvantages today.
3). Casteism has a long history in South Asia where there is evidence indicating its existence since BCE periods (Before Common Era). It has been present in Indian society for thousands of years and has greatly influenced the politics, economics and social structures throughout their history. However, for many years this was not an issue that concerned the public or the government as it was normalized. Thus, during pre-independence times casteism continued to be practiced with little change in modern India.
