I don't know exactly what you need but if your looking for major details, then I can help. The Holocaust, as you probably know, was the genocide (or mass murder) of Jews, by Adolf Hitler. He was the leader of the Nazi party and he blamed Jews for Germany's problems. After WWI, Germany wasn't doing too well and Adolf Hitler blamed the Jews for that. I don't know exactly why, but he hated Jews. Anyways, when Hitler came into power in Germany, he put all the Jews in concentration camps, where there were treated poorly and eventually killed by either poisonous gas, or starvation. There was also this event called <em>Kristallnacht, </em>or night of the broken glass, which was when Jewish homes and stores were broken into by Nazis and they were destroyed. This happened on November 9, 1938. The actual holocaust ended in May, 1945. A major effect was millions of Jews, and other minorities were killed because they weren't in the perfect "image"(Blue eyes blonde hair) and because Hitler blamed the Jews, even though I think he was a Jew, if my fifth grade report serves me correct. I think he might have blamed the Jews, because a Jewish doctor wasn't able to cure his sick mom so he might have been a little salt from that. That is all the information I know and can remember about the holocaust. I hope it helps.
