Answer:

Germany attempt to exterminate the Jews

Explanation:

The holocaust was a result of the anger and xenophobia created and increased during the years between wars (1920 and 1939). After the Crash of 1929 in the United States, European countries that were recovering after World War I, fall into an economic crisis. In the case of Germany, specifically, felt into an economic depression. The subsequent governments were unable to solve these problems, opening the way to Nazism. According to Hiter, the Jews were responsible for all the german problems. His conceptions, summarized in Mein Kampf, advocate that the Aryan race was superior, and all the other races were unworthy to live. This includes the jews, but more than just a "race", Hitler saw the jews as the bankers and businessman, the ones who had money, while the entire country was in depression. The antisemitism and the racism led to the holocaust, and the attempt to exterminate the problem.
