Research Blog Number ONE

Today I read the article titled Holocaust in worldbook encyclopedia online. Here on some of the main things I learned from reading the article were:
-The Holocaust did not only effect Jewish people but also people of other minor ties including Slavs etc..
-The Holocaust did not take part in only Germany but also in many other countries involved in World War II
-As a result of the war Palestine was migrated to by many Jewish peoples so they could find a place to call their own, separate from prejudice.
-Adolf Hitler was the man who is mainly responsible for the enforcement of the concentration camps that Jewish people were sent to in the Holocaust.
-Before the actual Holocaust Jews were already being isolated and placed in "ghettos"
-The Nuremberg Trials also helped only partially bring a little relief and justice to the victims of this awful genocide by passing codes to protect diversity and paying money to victims.
