B because slavery was always important and many weren’t freed in till Lincoln.
Nazi Germany built concentration camps in Poland to kill larger numbers of people. The Nazi ideology was based on the main idea that there was a superior race called the Arians which are race composed of tall, blue-eyed men. For the rest of the world and especially of the Jews included an inferior race.
<h3>Further explanation</h3>
For Adolf Hitler, the concentration camps were labor camps that allowed the German army to strengthen. But, they were mostly extermination camps to carry out the terrible genocide that this dictator had imagined.
The populations sent to these camps were mostly Jews, but there were also prisoners of war of all nationalities, communist political opponents, homosexuals, gypsies and other minorities. Most of the people who were sent to the camps did not come back. They died because of illnesses, worked too much, or directly murdered in gas chambers.
→ The main concentration camps were located in Poland. They were called:
- Treblinka: 1,200,000 dead.
- Auschwitz-Birkenau: 1,100,000 dead.
- Belzec: 500,000 dead.
- Sobibor: 250,000 dead.
- Chelmno: 153,000 dead.
- Majdanek: 78,000 dead.
The massive extermination of these populations took place during World War II between 1940 and 1944.
