  4. Holocaust • Germany’s decision to exterminate all Jews was known as The Final Solution. • It resulted in genocide: the systematic and purposeful destruction of a racial, political, religious, or cultural group.

  5. Hitler targeted: • Jews • Poles • Slavs • Gypsies • “Undesirables” (homosexuals, mentally ill, political dissidents) • (Over 6 million people were killed) • He wanted Aryan Supremacy. An all-white, blond-hair, blue-eyed society.

  6. The Nuremberg Trials • After Camps were liberated, the Nazi’s were held responsible • Nazi’s were convicted of war crimes and the trials emphasized individual responsibility for actions during the war, regardless of orders. • The trials led to an increased demand for a Jewish homeland.
