How It All Began
In the late 1930s, early 1940s, Adolf Hitler and the German Workers Party
(Nazis) took over all of Germany (and eventually took over most of
Germany). After this, Jews were persecuted by the government and were
eventually forced to live in ghettos and then were sent to execution camps
where they became slave labor and where most would be tortured or killed.
Millions of Jews across Europe would be denied many privileges, placed in
tightly packed ghettos with little resources with little to eat or drink and no
way out. Here, they would await there departure to execution camps.
Formation of Ghettos
As Nazi soldiers marched into neighborhoods across Europe, they forced
Jews to give themselves up or else faced death. Nazi soldiers rounded up the
Jews and placed them in ghettos, most of which they enclosed and were
guarded by armed Nazi soldiers. These ghettos were very tightly packed
with people and had very little resources and very little to eat or drink.
There was some independence in the ghettos (compared to concentration
camps) as there were still some businesses and a local government along
with restaurants, schools, bakeries, etc., however, resources were of very
little and their fate was not very good.
Inside a Ghetto
As I mentioned, the ghetto was just like any other community (except more
tightly packed and with less resources) and included every day things such
as….
• Restaurants
• Small businesses
• Fire department
• Police
• Local government
• Bakeries
• Butchers
Strict Nazi Rule
The Nazis kept very strict law and order in the Ghettos and imposed laws
such as curfews requiring residents to be inside their own homes…
sometimes as early as 5:00 or 6:00pm.
The Nazis also told Jews where they could go, what they could buy, and
prohibited from them going certain places in the Ghetto.
Jews were also prohibited from using any public transportation and were
denied basic privileges of society.

If any Jew attempted to escape the enclosed Ghetto, they were very likely to
be shot and killed or subject to be killed.
After the Ghetto
Unfortunately, for most Jews living in Ghettos, their next stop would be to a
concentration or execution camp where they were tortured to death,
starved and killed.
The Nazi soldiers would round up all of the residents of the Ghetto and
would transport them to execution camps where they would be enslaved to
the Germans and would face unimaginable torture and would live under the
worst possible conditions.
In Conclusion….
As you can tell, the ghettos, the concentration camps and the treatment
Jews received in Nazi Germany and Europe in the late 1930s and early to mid
1940s is unfathomable and is one of the worst genocides of any people in
history.
We must never forget the millions of Jews that were forced against their
own will to ghettos and concentration camps where they would become
enslaved and tortured, and where many would be killed.
