The Holocaust (The Shoah in Hebrew) was carried out by the Nazis in order to eliminate the Jews from Europe. It began during World War Two, after the Nazi German regime and its allies took control of Poland in 1939 (Cesarani, 2022). The Nazis devised what they termed “The Final Solution to the Jewish Problem” and began to confine the Polish Jews to ghettos (“What was the Holocaust?”, 2022). Adolf Hitler and the Nazi Party condemned Jews to death and killed them en masse using Einsatzgruppen death squads (Cesarani, 2022). They set up the first extermination camp Chelmno (in Poland) and continued to persecute thousands of Jews and other groups of people whom they considered undesirable.
