History

After deportation trains arrived at the killing centers, guards ordered the deportees to get out and form a line. The victims then went through a selection process. Men were separated from women and children. A Nazi, usually an SS physician, looked quickly at each person to decide if he or she was healthy and strong enough for forced labor. This SS officer then pointed to the left or the right; victims did not know that individuals were being selected to live or die. Babies and young children, pregnant women, the elderly, the handicapped, and the sick had little chance of surviving this first selection.

The main reason why this occurred was because the prisoners that were held in the concentration camps were taken there in order to be used as forced labor. The prisoners here were treated badly, ate little, were constantly abused, and worked long hours. Therefore, the Nazi knew that pregnant women, weak individuals, the sick and the old were not going to be able to tolerate this treatment and work efficiently.

Toward the end of the nineteenth century, some American policians and diplomats believe that the United States should become and
nlexa [21]
At this time colonies were viewed as a major factor in determining a nations power internationally and also an engine for economic growth in a mercantilist system. Therefore, arguments in favor of U.S. Imperialism would have been fueled by the power struggle with European nations to exert global influence and dominance. Another major factor that individuals would have argued for was that colonies would have provided new markets and sources for raw materials for the growing US economy. In the end the U.S. did not become a major imperial power which most likely served the nation's power and reputation in the long run.
