Introduction During World War 2 (1939-1945) in Warsaw Poland the German Nazi’s made a town called The Ghetto. This God-forbidden place was for Jewish people and their families. The Holocaust was a time period when Hitler ruled over most of Europe and German Nazi killed jews in the mass murder.
The Ghetto In Warsaw Poland a Ghetto for the Jews was established in 1939-1945. They made the Ghetto to separate the Jews from the non-Jews until they could be killed in death camps. Thousands of Jews would die of starvation or sickness before the Nazi’s could execute them. The living conditions were terrible, nobody should have had to live through that.

living conditions In The Ghetto The living conditions were unbearable, and the ghetto was extremely overcrowded. The food supply was very low in the Ghetto making people smuggle food through the Ghetto. Between six to seven people lived in one room and the daily food rations were the equivalent of onetenth of the required minimum daily calorie intake. The economic activity in this place was very low, generally most of this was illegal. Smuggling of food being the most prevalent of such activity.

Nazi Soldiers On September 1, 1939 The German Nazi’s Invaded Poland creating a place called the Ghetto in Warsaw Poland. In the Ghetto German Nazi’s treated the Jews with no respect. They would beat them till they were broken or even till they died. Another thing they made the Jews do was wear a white armband with the blue star of David so they could be easily be identified by the Nazi’s. Many Jews got executed from death camps to gas chambers.
