Introduction
The Holocaust was an event that was a tragedy. People dying of hunger and injuries. Indeed the Holocaust was a horrible time for people. This tragic event occured in Germany and at first it was small but then it became so big and overwhelming that the whole world got involved. Some people helped the Jews with their injuries and family emptiness while others didn’t want to come anywhere near them. Almost six million Jews died. The Holocaust was an event that Hitler and the Nazis started and it involved the Nazis killing millions of people and ended with incomplete families.

How it Got Started
How was the Holocaust started you may ask. The Holocaust was caused by a man named Adolf Hitler. (Jacob Linda) Hitler hated Jews and he gave speeches of why they were bad. Many people agreed with Hitler. Soon the people who agreed formed a group called the Nazis. The Nazis were ruled by Hitler and they even had a religion called Nazism. They even had their own symbol that represented hate. One time Hitler got arrested on November 8 1923. (Seymour Rossel) while in jail Hitler wrote the Nazi bible. The time the Nazis got their power was on the year of 1933. The Holocaust was actually started on the year 1938. (Downing David)

The Time of Reckoning
Once the Holocaust began all of hell broke loose. Millions of people were not only injured but killed. Many types of people were killed for different reasons. Such as gypsies and homo-sexuals. (Seymour Rossel) The Nazis would kill Jews no matter where they came from or where they were. Also the Holocaust took place during World War 2 and Germany was involved. In Germany there were many Jews. To make matters worst some Europeans decided to join the Holocaust by also killing Jews. By 1945 the Nazis almost killed 2 out of 3 European Jews.(“Holocaust Encyclopedia”)

The Aftermath of Sadness
The Holocaust actually ended on 1945. (“Holocaust Encyclopedia”) After this tragic event Hitler committed suicide. There was a huge trial based on the killing of the Jews. This trial was called the Nuremburg Trial. The way the trial ended was with 3 men set free, 19 men found guilty and 12 men were sentenced to hanging. (Rossel Seymour) Just because Hitler died didn’t mean Nazism died. The Nazis continued to teach Hitler’s beleifs and way of life. There was a group called The Joint Distribution. They provided food, clothing and shelter to the survivors of the Holocaust. Also 700,000 jews emigrated to Isreal. Sadly not all Holocaust survivors had complete families.

Conclusion
I think that the Holocaust should be taken more seriously than it is. Around 6,000,000 people wiped from the Earth. to me that is overwhelming. I feel very sorry for the people who lost their lives because of the Holocaust. They didn’t deserve. I learned a lot about the Holocaust. I learned who Hitler and the Nazis were and I learned that the Holocaust was a persecution. What really surprised me abut the Holocaust was how it would take one man (Hitler) to start a horid and tragic event. what I still would like to now abuot the Holocaust is if the Nazis today are still aggresive and kill Jews.
