Achieving The Final Solution At the height of the deportations, up to 12,000 people were gassed and incinerated each day at Auschwitz (Remember.org,2015). Gas chambers were a dreadful part of Holocaust history. Mainly because of their role in the killing of Jews. Gas chambers were built to kill, so they were the most common method for mass murdering the Jews (Projetaladin.org). To kill the Jews, most German extermination camps used Zyklon B to gas the Jews. Gas chambers were a depressing part of…

What is conflict? Well conflict is a struggle or an opposition that people deal with on a daily basis. Responding to conflict positively is the best thing to do, but it can be challenging.

You can't avoid conflict in your life, but the best way to respond to conflict is positively because if you have a positive outlook on things, conflict can…

The Holocaust was a depressing time. People were separated and killed because of their nationality and beliefs. This was the work of the infamous Adolf Hitler. As The United States of America begins a new presidential race, some Americans will be concerned with the possibility of a new Holocaust-like Era. However, America will not experience Holocaust-like eras now, or in the near future. This is because of the comparison of past attitudes to present attitudes and the current amount of tolerance…

Over six-million Jews died in the Holocaust because of Hitler’s “Final Solution.” Hitler wanted to use the Jews as a scapegoat for all of Germany’s problems. He used many methods for killing the Jews, such as labor camps and concentration camps. Labor camps and death camps were a terrible part of the Holocaust because of their brutal living conditions and death counts. Death camps were grand facilities built strictly for killing; therefore, hundreds-of-thousands of Jews met their fate there.…

Some people have probably thought about how Historical events can be reflected in a play. If so some people have probably read some different scripts to see if it would tell if there is a certain way of thinking back to past events. In the play “The Diary of Anne Frank” is a very good example of these historical events. In “The Diary of Anne Frank” Mr Frank reflected on his life about two years before, during some historical events such as world war II. World War II lasted six years in Europe as…

Paul Celan is perhaps the greatest German-Jewish poet in the twentieth century. He was born in 1920 in Czernowitz, in the Kingdom of Romania (now a part of Ukraine). He was raised in an educated German-speaking Jewish family. He studied medicine at the age of 18 in France, but left early when the German occupied Austria in 1938. He then changed his course of study to learn Romance languages. When the danger spread all over Europe, he tried to warn his family, but it was too late for them to…

Ultranationalism is defined as an extreme form of nationalism in which it promotes the interest of one state or people above all others. Ultranationalism is the root or cause of genocide to a large extent because it is often that leaders who have caused genocide develop feelings of ethnocentrism, which is a feeling that describes one who holds their ethnicity superior to others. This leads to thinking of other nations as inferior. When this happens, leaders who have feelings of ultranationalism…

On October the 3rd 1990, the reunification of both East Germany and West Germany was finally made official, almost a year following the fall of the Berlin wall on November 9 1989. As two states became one, the treaty of unification caused many people to face economic dilemma. East Germany faced an insane amount of unemployment, while the more prosperous West Germans had to deal with the heavy taxation and were angry at the economic cost. This resulted in a very unhappy society where racism and…
